Popis: |
CFRTP prepreg laminates thermoforming (Continuous Fibre Reinforcements and Thermoplastic Resin) is a fast composite manufacturing process. Furthermore the thermoplastic matrix is favourable to recycling. The development of a thermoforming process is complex and expensive to achieve by trial/error. A simulation approach for thermoforming of multilayer thermoplastic is presented. Each prepreg layer is modelled by semi-discrete shell elements. These elements consider the tension, in-plane shear and bending behaviour of the ply at different temperatures around the fusion point. The contact/friction during the forming process is taken into account using forward increment Lagrange multipliers. A lubricated friction model is implemented between the layers and for ply/tool friction. Thermal and forming simulations are presented and compared to experimental results. The computed shear angles after forming and wrinkles are in good agreement with the thermoforming experiment. |
