Thermal modeling of automated fiber placement (AFP) of thermoplastic composites using plug flow simulation

Thermal evolution in material under Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) processing conditions is critical in determining the final microstructure, interface bonding and, consequently, the mechanical properties of the built structure. Thermal modeling offers an important tool to predict the temperature f...
