Quantifying the delamination of L-shaped composite laminates under low velocity impact using x-ray computed tomography (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Cinar, K., Guven, I., Fatih E., O., & Ersoy, N. (2018, September). Quantifying the delamination of L-shaped composite laminates under low velocity impact using x-ray computed tomography. Paper presented at 33rd Technical Conference of the American Society for Composites 2018, Seattle, Washington, USA

Low velocity impact response and failure behavior of L-shaped composite laminates were investigated. The composite laminates with variable thickness, stacking sequences, and corner radius were manufactured using autoclave manufacturing method. Tests...

Design of a real-sized composite drive shaft and critical points from beginning to end (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Cinar, K., Ersoy, N., & Unal, M. A. (2018, June). Design of a real-sized composite drive shaft and critical points from beginning to end. Paper presented at ECCM18 - 18th European Conference on Composite Materials, Athens, Greece

In this study, the replacement of a metal drive shaft by a composite counterapart was investigated. The drive shaft considered here is a thin walled tube with an internal diameter of 60 mm and a length of 1200 mm. These dimensions correspond to the d...

Meso-scale process modelling strategies for pultrusion of unidirectional profiles (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Yuksel, O., Baran, I., Rasmussen, F. S., Spangenberg, J., Ersoy, N., Hattel, J., & Akkerman, R. (2018, June). Meso-scale process modelling strategies for pultrusion of unidirectional profiles. Paper presented at ECCM18 - 18th European Conference on Composite Materials, Athens, Greece

The resin injection pultrusion is an automated composite manufacturing method in which the resin is injected in a chamber. The flow and the thermo chemical mechanical (TCM) models have been studied for the pultrusion process to improve the reliabilit...
