  1. 1. Simulation and Modelling of Injection Molded Components : Fiber Reinforced Polymers in Powertrain Mounts

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Hanna Jakobsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Material modelling; polymer composites; FRP; orthotropic; powertrain mount; vehicle engineering; Digimat; Material modellering; polymera kompositer; ortotropisk; motorupphängnig; Digimat;

    Abstract : Powertrain mounts' purpose is to mount the engine and the gearbox in the car. Besides that, it isolate the body from the powertrain movements and road excitation. The most common material in powertrain mounts bracket is aluminum but lately, fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) has been acting as a substitute for the aluminum. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fatigue Injection Moulded Short Fibre Reinforced Polymers

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära (Inst.)

    Author : Axel Eriksson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In order to keep up with the increasing demand of fuel-efficiency in the transportationindustry, the interest of making the vehicles as lightweight as possible is steadilyincreasing. One of the ways of reducing the weight is to introduce an anisotropicmaterial as Short Fibre Reinforced Polymers (SFRP) as a replacement for structuralparts made out of metals. READ MORE

  3. 3. Anisotropic material modeling and impact simulation of a brush cutter casing made of a short fiber reinforced plastic

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Hållfasthetslära; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Oskar Norman; [2014]
    Keywords : anisotropic material modeling; short fiber reinforced plastics; impact simulation; Digimat; LS-DYNA;

    Abstract : A popular way to reduce weight in industrial products without compromising the strength or stiffness is to replace components made of metal by plastics that have been reinforced by glass fibers. When fibers are introduced in a plastic, the resulting composite usually becomes anisotropic, which makes it much more complex to work with in simulation software. READ MORE
