Abstract

This chapter provides a high-level overview of the approach to design for a number of composite manufacturing processes. Design of structural components includes design for manufacturability, manufacturing-informed performance, and cost. A number of physical phenomena that govern manufacturing of thermoset and thermoplastic resins with continuous and discontinuous fibre systems are described. The role of simulation methods to design for manufacturability is highlighted for specific processes, including tape placement, laminate stamping, resin transfer moulding, and compression moulding.
