3D Numerical Modeling of Laser Assisted Tape Winding Process of Composite Pressure Vessels and Pipes—Effect of Winding Angle, Mandrel Curvature and Tape Width
Advanced thermoplastic composites manufacturing using laser assisted tape placement or winding (LATP/LATW) is a challenging task as monitoring and predicting nip point (bonding) temperature are difficult especially on curved surfaces. A comprehensive numerical analysis of the heat flux and temperatu...
