This new edition has been revised and expanded to include the latest advances, state-of-the-art process models, and governing principles. The main challenges in pultrusion, such as the process induced residual stresses, shape distortions, thermal history, species conversion, phase changes, impregnation of the reinforcements and pulling force are described, with related examples are provided.
Moreover, strategies for having a reliable and optimized process using probabilistic approaches and optimization algorithms are summarized. Another focus of this book is on the thermo-chemical and mechanical analyses of the pultrusion process for industrial profiles.
- Provides a detailed summary and description of the practical and scientific challenges in pultrusion processes, and presents methods to overcome the challenges
- Offers a comprehensive analysis of the thermokinetics, residual stresses, resistive forces, and fiber impregnation during pultrusion
- Explains numerical process simulation, opening the door to reliable design and process optimization for pultrusion
Engineers, manufacturers, designers, and practitioners working in pultrusion, process optimization, modelling and simulation, fiber-reinforced polymer composites, composite manufacturing, and plastics processing, Researchers, scientists and advanced students in fiber-reinforced polymer composites, polymer engineering, composite manufacturing, materials processing, and mechanical engineering
