Koutras, N. (author), Benedictus, R. (author), Villegas, I.F. (author)The effect of temperature on the lap shear strength (LSS) and failure mechanisms of ultrasonically welded carbon fibre reinforced polyphenylene sulphide (CF/PPS) joints was investigated, correlating the weld performance to the crystallinity degree of PPS at the weldline. The single-lap shear tests were carried out at temperatures ranging from...journal article 2021

Koutras, N. (author), Villegas, I.F. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)The influence of the ultrasonic welding process parameters, namely the force and the vibration amplitude, on the crystallinity degree at the welding interface of CF/PPS (carbon fibre reinforced poly(phenylene) sulphide) joints is investigated. Two different sets of parameters, one representing high force and high vibration amplitude (1000 N,...conference paper 2020
