Samenvatting:

Pultrusion: State-of-the-Art Process Models with Applications, Second Edition is a detailed guide to pultrusion, providing methodical coverage of process models and computation simulation, governing principles and science, and key challenges to help readers enable process optimization and scale-up. This new edition has been revised and expanded to include the latest advances, state-of-the-art process models, and governing principles. The main challenges in pultrusion, such as the process induced residual stresses, shape distortions, thermal history, species conversion, phase changes, impregnation of the reinforcements and pulling force are described, with related examples are provided.

Moreover, strategies for having a reliable and optimized process using probabilistic approaches and optimization algorithms are summarized. Another focus of this book is on the thermo-chemical and mechanical analyses of the pultrusion process for industrial profiles.

• Provides a detailed summary and description of the practical and scientific challenges in pultrusion processes, and presents methods to overcome the challenges
• Offers a comprehensive analysis of the thermokinetics, residual stresses, resistive forces, and fiber impregnation during pultrusion
• Explains numerical process simulation, opening the door to reliable design and process optimization for pultrusion
