This study proposed a novel approach based on the 3D discrete element method (DEM) to simulate the progressive delamination in unidirectional carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite laminates. A hexagonal packing strategy was used for modell... Read More about A novel approach for 3D discrete element modelling the progressive delamination in unidirectional CFRP composites.

3D printing of continuous carbon fibre reinforced powder-based epoxy composites (2022)
Journal Article
Zhang, H., Zhang, K., Li, A., Wan, L., Robert, C., Ó Brádaigh, C. M., & Yang, D. (2022). 3D printing of continuous carbon fibre reinforced powder-based epoxy composites. Composites Communications, 33, Article 101239. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coco.2022.101239

This paper presents an experimental study on 3D printing of continuous carbon fibre reinforced thermoset epoxy composites. Powder-based solid epoxy was electrostatically flocked on the 1K continuous carbon fibre tow and then melted to fabricate compo...
