Optimal paramerers for curing graphite/epoxy composite laminates

Comparative Analysis of Drills for Composite Laminates

The characteristics of carbon fibre reinforced plastics allow a very broad range of uses. Drilling is often necessary to assemble different components, but this can lead to various forms of damage, such as delamination which is the most severe. However, a reduced thrust force can decrease the risk of delamination. In this work, two variables of the drilling process were compared: tool material ...

Indium light source for curing composite resins.

There is an existing problem of cumulative hazardous effect of violet and near ultra-violet light which is produced by standard polymerisation units. Another restrict is shallow depth of cure, particularly of darker composite shades in premolar and molar region. Searching for better light source we used indium resonance lines from several indium high pressure lamps and tested curing effect on t...

Genetic optimization of two-material composite laminates

This paper describes the optimization of a composite laminate made from two materials. The use of two materials in the laminates design can offer improved designs, as it is possible to combine the desirable properties of the two materials. In this paper, we consider the use of graphite-epoxy, which has high stiffness properties, but is expensive, and glass-epoxy, which is not as stiff, but has ...

Direct Composite Laminates - A Case Report

Rehabilitation of lost dental aesthetic is one of the most important concerns for contemporary dentistry. Conservative treatment modality along with aesthetic approaches, such as direct and indirect laminate veneer restorations were the treatment of choice. Laminate veneers are restorations to correct aesthetic deficiencies and discolorations. Direct laminate veneers involve the application of ...
