Abstract
Unidirectional composite tapes are extensively used in automated manufacturing to produce high-performance composite parts with significant design flexibility. Their superior mechanical properties stem from the alignment of continuous fibres in a single direction, making them ideal for advanced engineering applications. However, the performance of these components is closely linked to their microstructure, and accurately predicting their behaviour requires a detailed understanding of their microstructural characteristics....
