An evaluation of large diameter through-thickness metallic pins in composites

Neale, Geoffrey; Saaran, Vinodhen; Dahale, Monali; Skordos, Alexandros A. (Elsevier, 2024-03-24)

There is increasing demand for functional through-thickness reinforcement (TTR) in composites using elements whose geometry exceeds limitations of existing TTR methods like tufting, stitching, and z-pinning. Recently, ...
Insertion of large diameter through-thickness metallic pins in composites

Neale, Geoffrey; Skordos, Alexandros A. (Elsevier, 2022-03-17)

Existing Through-Thickness Reinforcement (TTR) methods for laminated composites using semi or fully rigid reinforcing elements, like tufting, stitching, and z-pinning, present limitations on reinforcing element geometry, ...
Numerical FEA parametric analysis of CAI behaviour of CFRP stiffened panels

Gaitanelis, Dimitrios G.; Giannopoulos, Ioannis K.; Theotokoglou, Efstathios E. (Elsevier, 2019-06-10)

This paper examined the effect of numerical modelling parameters on the accuracy and computational efficiency of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) stiffened panels under Compression After Impact (CAI). Pristine and ...
