Jongbloed, B.C.P. (author), Teuwen, Julie J.E. (author), Benedictus, R. (author), Villegas, I.F. (author)Continuous ultrasonic welding is a promising technique for joining thermoplastic composites structures together. The aim of this study was to gain further insight into what causes higher through-the-thickness heating in continuous ultrasonic welding of thermoplastic composites as compared to the static process. Thermocouples were used to measure...journal article 2021

Skandali, M. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author), Koussios, S. (author), Sinke, J. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)The purpose of this study is to simulate the two-dimensional, transient and continuous heat transfer during the thermoset Automated Tape Laying (ATL) process. The heat transfer analysis is coupled with a cure kinetics model of the thermoset prepreg tapes used for the process. Unlike most studies, the process is modelled in a Lagrangian framework...conference paper 2015
