The inconsistent interfacial bonding of 3D-printed materials is accompanied by increasing
scattering of the measured fracture toughness in delamination tests. This article focuses on …

The microstructure of 3D printed composites is inherently different than traditional
composites due to the manufacturing process. The differences influence morphological …

Additive manufacturing for continuous fiber composite exhibits great potential for the
fabrication of sophisticated structural components. Nevertheless, interlaminar characteristics …

The significant void content is the most noticeable flaw of 3D printed thermoplastic
structures. The voids run parallel to the printed filaments, resulting in non-ellipsoidal …

Additively manufactured parts of thermoplastic materials using the Fused Filament
Fabrication (FFF) technique express transversely isotropic characteristics. Those …

Continuous carbon fibres can greatly improve the properties of 3D-printed polymer parts
made by material extrusion. However, like all laminated composites, 3D-printed parts are …

In the paper, a detailed experimental and numerical investigation of compression after
impact (CAI) behavior of hygrothermal aged T300 985LV carbon/epoxy composites is …

This article presents a novel approach for assessing the effects of residual stresses in laser-
directed energy deposition (L-DED). The approach focuses on exploiting the potential of …

This research focuses on investigating the elastic and damage characteristics of individual
composite beads utilized in additively manufactured (3D printed) composites. A novel …

Thermoplastic parts created using the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technique exhibit
