... a shape memory effect and they can be static throughout their lifecycles. It is generally acknowledged that the FGAM parts can be characterised by the variation in composition and structure gradually over a defined volume (Chiu and Yu, 2008 ; Yu et al., 2015). Eujin Pei can be contacted...

..., but will only work effectively if surface preparation is correctly carried out. It is possible to use simple design rules to predict the strength of some joints, but care must be used, especially where advanced composites are to be joined. © Company 2000 Adhesives Joining Stress Composites...

...I.A. Ashcroft; D.J. Hughes; S.J. Shaw Fibre reinforced polymer composites (FRPs) are finding increasing usage in many industrial sectors. Adhesive bonding is often the most attractive joining technique for these materials in terms of structural efficiency and cost of manufacture. However, concerns...

... the Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) based semiconductor diode laser compositions which emit at 808nm in the infra‐red. Similarly, high power arrays are also now available which emit at 940nm, selected to pump Erbium Yag solid state lasers. This wavelength is very close to that of conventional solid state lasers which...

... Advanced Cincinnati controls and software, designed specifically for composite processing, make it easy to program and control Viper multi-axis movements for lay-up of complex geometries, said Hennies. Proprietary Acraplace programming software translates CAD tooling and part data into seven...
