A model for the consolidation of hybrid textiles considering air entrapment, dissolution and diffusion

Véronique Michaud, Vincent Werlen, Christian Rytka

A new model is proposed for the consolidation of hybrid textiles, in which air entrapment and dissolution are considered. One of the key parameters is tow permeability, which is described by the analytical model of Gebart and validated at very high fibre v ...

A life cycle analysis of novel lightweight composite processes: Reducing the environmental footprint of automotive structures

Véronique Michaud, Colin Gomez, Baris Çaglar, Vincent Werlen, Christian Rytka

In this study, three novel thermoplastic impregnation processes were analyzed towards automotive applications. The first process is thermoplastic compression resin transfer molding in which a glass fiber mat is impregnated in through thickness by a thermop ...

Novel tooling for direct melt impregnation of textile with variotherm injection moulding: Methodology and proof of concept

Véronique Michaud, Vincent Werlen, Christian Rytka

Thermoplastic compression resin transfer moulding coupled with injection moulding is an appealing process for the production of thermoplastic composites. However, its implementation at an industrial scale remains challenging as variotherm injection mouldin ...

A numerical approach to characterize the viscoelastic behaviour of fibre beds and to evaluate the influence of strain deviations on viscoelastic parameter extraction

Véronique Michaud, Vincent Werlen, Christian Rytka

The development of a robust material model able to accurately describe fibre bed compaction at different strain and strain rates is highly desirable because it is essential for the simulation of many composite manufacturing processes. In this study, we inv ...
