    Keywords : Optimisation; Lightweight structures; Carbon Fibre; Composites; LCA; Life Cycle Energy; Optimering; Lättkonstruktioner; Kolfiber; Kompositer; LCA; Livscykelenergi;

    Abstract : Fiber reinforced plastics are composite materials that offer a lower weight, while still mechanically perform at least as good as conventional materials such as steel. This makes them attractive for the automotive industry since the implementation of them in e.g. READ MORE

  5. 4. Composite Hydrofoil Manufacturing For An Autonomous Surface Vessel

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Anton Svensson; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The use of composite materials has been common in small craft boat building for a long time. In recent years, there has been a huge push in the development of different types of appendages such as hydrofoils. These hydrofoils are commonly manufactured in carbon fibre composites, due to high requirements in weight and stiffness. READ MORE

  6. 5. The development of a technical costmodel for composites : Adapted to the automotive industry

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Mathilda Karlsson; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Composites are light, durable and can be designed to have mechanical properties rivaling those of steel. In order to use composites in more cost-sensitive fields their manufacturing-cost must decrease. One way of decreasing this cost is to manufacture larger volumes. READ MORE
