The crashworthiness of W-shaped thermoplastic composite structures made from woven carbon fiber and polycarbonate was investigated. The thermoplastic composite sheets were thermoformed into W-shaped structures. The original one with flat flange parts was called W1...
4D printing, as an advancement in additive manufacturing, incorporates smart materials that allow printed objects to experience programmed shape changes over time when exposed to specific external stimuli. Polylactic acid (PLA) stands out among these materials because...
Thermoplastic composites are widely used in the manufacturing of composite components due to their fast molding speed and excellent mechanical properties. This paper proposes a robotic winding system based on the collaboration between a six-axis industrial robot and a...
As 5G/6G communications, aerospace systems, and high-frequency electronics advance, the demand for lightweight, wave-transparent, and thermally conductive materials has become increasingly urgent. Now, researchers from the Shaanxi Key Laboratory of Macromolecular...
Les structures pour la mobilité telles que les véhicules autonomes terrestres, spatiaux ou encore aéronautiques (Castanié et al 2024) sont constamment soumises à des charges mécaniques et environnementales complexes. A titre d’exemple, la NASA et l’Agence...
