  1. 1. Thermal Conversion of Cellulose-Lignin Precursors into Carbon Fibres

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella material

    Author : Sofia Westberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Carbon fiber; lignin; cellulose; continuous conversion;

    Abstract : Carbon fibres are used in many applications thanks to their exceptional tensile properties in relation to their relatively low weight. These thin strands of at least 90% carbon are mixed with a matrix such as epoxy to form composites used for cars, wind turbines, prosthetics, and many other things. READ MORE

  2. 2. Characterisation of an Additively Manufactured Self-Sensing Material Using Carbon Fibre Sensors

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Alain Williamson; [2023]
    Keywords : Additive Manufacturing; Self-Sensing Material; Carbon Fibre Sensors; Structural Health Monitoring; Space Applications; 3D-Printed Continuous Carbon Fibre Filament; Strain Sensor; Mechanical Properties; Electromechanical Properties; Tensile Strength; Failure Strain; Base Resistance; Gauge Factor; Linearity; Systematic Literature Review; Material Selection; Mechanical Design; Material Development; Feasibility Study;

    Abstract : Increasing demand for structural health monitoring in space highlights the need to make the creation of these systems more accessible. This study investigates the potential of additive manufacturing to achieve this goal by characterizing a self-sensing material made of a commercially available 3D-printed continuous carbon fibre filament.

  3. 3. Additive Manufacturing of Self-Sensing Materials

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Benyam Angeria; [2022]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; continuous carbon fibre; self-sensing; non-planar;

    Abstract : A self-sensing material can not only carry a load but can also provide data aboutthe load and stress it’s being subjected to. Traditional additive manufacturing haslimited capabilities in producing self-sensing material. READ MORE

  4. 4. Systematic approach on conducting fatigue testing of unidirectional continuous carbon fibre composites

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Svenja Wanner; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : High fuel saving potentials, increased load carrying capacities and therefore competitive advantages force the heavy goods vehicle industry to enhance the efforts towards comprehensive lightweight designs. Facing this challenge, the material evaluation in terms of simulations and physical testing of composite materials is required for the design against fatigue failure due to road introduced vibrations.
