Defect Reduction Strategies for the Manufacture of Contoured Laminates Using Vacuum Bag-Only Prepregs
Complex structures manufactured using low-pressure vacuum bag-only (VBO) prepreg processing are more susceptible to defects than flat laminates due to complex compaction conditions present at sharp corners. Consequently, effective defect mitigation strategies are required to produce structural parts. In this study, we investigated the relationships between laminate properties, processing condit...
متن کاملMedicine shortages: a commentary on causes and mitigation strategies
Shortages of medicines and vaccines have been reported in countries of all income levels in recent years. Shortages can result from one or multiple causes, including shortages of raw materials, manufacturing capacity problems, industry consolidation, marketing practices, and procurement and supply chain management. Existing approaches to mitigate shortages include advance notice systems managed...
متن کاملVoid formation in composite prepregs – Effect of dissolved moisture
L.K. Grunenfelder and S.R. Nutt 1. Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0241, USA *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: Void formation as a function of resin moisture content was investigated to better understand and control process defects in composite parts made from prepreg. In this study, uncured prepr...
متن کاملCharacterisation and Control of Fibre Alignment during Prepreg Manufacture
A procedure is presented for characterisation of fibre misalignment in composites. It is based on analysis of low magnification images in which the local fibre direction can be inferred from the orientation of elongated features in the image. Specimen preparation and image analysis procedures are presented and their usage is illustrated by application to a carbon fibre composite. Factors affect...
متن کاملMeta-Analysis of Methane Mitigation Strategies: Improved Predictions of Mitigation Potentials and Production Implications
The aim of this study was to use meta-analysis to identify the enteric methane (CH4) mitigation strategy that reduced CH4 emission without lowering production. To this end, a database initially developed was updated, compiling data from 61 publications (233 experiments) for various observations in dairy cattle on effects of hydrogen sink (H-sink), ionophore, lipid and conc...
