Under the influence of extrinsic curing conditions and intrinsic properties of carbon fiber
reinforced resin composites, the formation of curing deformation is inevitable, which makes …

Residual stress is inherent in any fiber reinforced composite, created by the laminates
processing route and high levels of anisotropy. The aim of this article is to provide an up to …

Epoxy resins are used extensively in composite materials for a wide range of engineering
applications, including structural components of aircraft and spacecraft. The processing of …

A more general formulation of a thermo-viscoelastic law which considers the thermal
dependence on residual stresses during curing or post curing is proposed. The formulation …

A methodology for predicting residual cure deformation and stresses in composite laminates
during cure is proposed. The technique employs an unbalanced cross-ply strip denoted as a …

Multiscale modeling, comprising quantum-chemical reaction path calculation, curing
molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, microscopic finite-element analysis (FEA), and …

This study aims to investigate the self-healing capability of a composite laminate composed
of novel bio-based benzoxazine vitrimers when subjected to delamination-healing cycles …

A fast crosslinking reaction is crucial for the economical production of automotive
components in liquid composite molding (LCM) processes. Although a large number of …

We investigated the effects of hygrothermal aging on the tension–tension fatigue behavior of
unidirectional (UD) glass/polydicyclopentadiene (pDCPD) composites. Samples were …

It is well-known that all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) predictions of mechanical properties
of thermoset resins suffer from multiple accuracy issues associated with their viscoelastic …
