Model development for the formation of resin-rich zones in composites processing

Resin-rich zones are a common phenomenon in liquid composite molding processes causing unwanted residual stress and deformation. They are normally caused by the gaps between the fiber preform and the internal mold surface due to mold closure. Because resin-rich zones are difficult to control, they c...
