Composite Materials and Additive Manufacturing: Forging a Sustainable Path Forward

ERB 106 1500 Engineering Drive, Madison

Additive manufacturing (AM) of lightweight and energy-efficient composite using continuous fibers to reinforce thermoset polymers is highly desirable in many applications, such as aerospace, vehicles, and constructions. However, the material, architectural, and technical limitations make existing AM technologies unavailable for printing structural and functional thermoset/continuous carbon fiber composite. In my work, we overcome these difficulties...
