Consolidation of net-shape random fiber thermoplastic composite preforms

Patrick Blanchard, Véronique Michaud, Martyn Douglas Wakeman, Simon Jespersen

A novel thermoplastic composite preforming process has been developed. This thermoplastic programmable powdered preforming process (TP-P4) uses commingled glass and polypropylene yarns, which are chopped to a desired length and deposited onto a vacuum scre ...

Non-autoclave processing of honeycomb sandwich structures: Skin through thickness air permeability during cure

Véronique Michaud

In non-autoclave processing of sandwich structures, the pressure level inside the honeycomb becomes a critical process parameter, which depends on the permeability to air of the upper skin. In this work, prepreg and adhesive permeabilities were determined ...

Carbon outclasses wood in racket paddles: Ratings of expert and intermediate tennis players

Véronique Michaud, Christian Fischer, Michael Herzog, Olaf Blanke

Wooden racket paddles were modified with rubber and carbon fibre laminates and their differences tested in terms of flexural, damping, and coefficient of restitution properties. Four rackets types were designed: a wood reference, wood with rubber, carbon f ...

Vacuum-bag processing of sandwich structures: role of honeycomb pressure level on skin-core adhesion and skin quality

Véronique Michaud

Non-autoclave processing of honeycomb sandwich structures generally leads to poor compaction and high porosity of the skins, along with a decreased skin-core adhesion. The pressure level inside the honeycomb cells plays an important role and is controlled ...

Assessment of semi-impregnated fabrics in honeycomb sandwich structures

Véronique Michaud

Semi-impregnated fabrics, or semipregs, are fabrics alternating dry and resin impregnated areas along the fibre bed surface. Due to their increased initial through thickness permeability to gas flow, these could constitute an alternative to prepreg in the ...

Structural damping of model sandwich structures using tailored shear thickening fluid compositions

Véronique Michaud, Christian Fischer

Shear thickening fluids (STF) demonstrate the ability to simultaneously stiffen and increase their damping capacity above a critical shear strain, which depends on the particle concentration and aspect ratio in the STF. The present work considers two types ...

Hybrid Glass Mat-reinforced Polypropylene-Montmorillonite Nanocomposites

John Christopher Plummer, Véronique Michaud, Chrystèle Houphouet-Boigny Favre, Martyn Douglas Wakeman, Sara Dalle Vacche

Polypropylene/montmorillonite (iPP/MMT) has been investigated as an alternative to isotactic polypropylene (iPP) as a matrix for glass mat thermoplastic (GMT) composites. The melt viscosity increased significantly on MMT addition, but iPP/5.9wt% MMT-based ...

Adhesion of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer onto galvanized steel

Véronique Michaud, Basile Golaz

When a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) is applied onto galvanized steel by a hot melt process, the subsequent adhesion and its durability are very sensitive to the chemical bonds created at the interface. The effects of several surface treatment ...
