The massive consumption of fossil fuels has led to the serious accumulation of carbon
dioxide gas in the atmosphere and global warming. Bioconversion technologies that utilize …

Abstract Tow Based Discontinuous Composites (TBDCs) are a new class of composite
materials which combine in-plane isotropy, high strength and stiffness and enhanced …

The present work studied the mechanical behavior of organosheets produced using 1
″long glass fiber, which are incorporated within an in-situ polymerized polyamide 6 (nylon) …

Compression molding of carbon fiber sheet molding compounds (CF-SMC) is a promising
technology to reduce the waste of carbon fiber composites and to drive sustainable …

Abstract Tow-Based Discontinuous Composites (TBDCs, composed by chopped carbon-
fibre tows embedded in polymer) combine high performance with manufacturability; the …

Prepreg platelet molded composite (PPMC) is derived from compression molded pieces of
chopped unidirectional prepreg tape. The properties of a stochastic PPMC arise from the …

This study investigates the combined flow-induced crystallization in the polymer and fiber
reorientation during compression molding of a long discontinuous glass fiber polyamide (PA …

One of the main challenges facing fiber-reinforced polymer composites is the lack of options
for end-of-life recycling. The environmental impact of waste materials disposed of at landfill …

A novel approach for microstructure reconstruction using artificial intelligence (MR-AI) was
proposed to nondestructively measure the through-thickness average stochastic fiber …

In this study, we experimentally and numerically investigate the evolution of the tensile
material properties of Discontinuous Fiber Composites (DFCs) with an increasing average …
