Research Interest:
PhD Thesis: Optimized Design of Composite Parts by RTM Finding an efficient design for a composite
structure can be achieved not only by sizing the cross-sectional area, but
also by tailoring of material properties through selective choice of stacking
sequence. The increased number of design variables is both blessing and a
curse for the designer. The challenge for composite designers is extended by
incorporating the manufacturing considerations into the design process. This
is an area in which previous design work is lacking, but is now gaining
momentum. The specific goal of this research is to develop an optimized
design, analysis and manufacturing process for composite materials, using the
Resin Transfer Moulding (RTM) process as a technology demonstrator. It is believed
that the most promising direction would be to use a combination of
optimization schemes in order to solve such a diverse problem. The resulting
tool from this research should be one that will be useful for both
researchers and industry. |
