Metal matrix composites (MMCs) acquire their improved physical and mechanical properties
through the careful reinforcement of their matrices by a variety of light but strong and stable …

Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) has become a well-established technique for simulating the
kinetics of free radical polymerization, both to generate polymer molecular weight …

In compression resin transfer moulding (CRTM), resin flows inside a mould filled with fibrous
reinforcement as a result of resin injection and mould compression. This process facilitates …

A process cycle of resin transfer molding (RTM) consists of two sequential stages, ie filling
and curing stages. These two stages are interrelated in non-isothermal processes so that the …

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites have gained popularity through their advantages over
conventional metallic materials. Most polymer composites are traditionally made with …

In this paper, a finite element/control volume (FE/CV) method based computer code is
adapted to simulate the flow of resin-like liquids in swelling jute fabrics during the …

Numerical simulation of resin transfer molding (RTM) is known as a useful method to
analyze the process before the mold is actually built. In thick parts, the resin flow is no longer …

In resin injection/compression molding (RI/CM), a preform often comprises layers of different
fiber reinforcements. Each fiber reinforcement has unique through thickness and in-plane …

The mold-filling simulation of liquid composite molding (LCM) is of great importance in
optimizing this cost-effective polymer-composites manufacturing process. The flow in LCM is …

The filling and curing stage of resin transfer molding is non-isothermal. The temperature
plays an important role in both filling and curing stage and these two stages are strongly …
