The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of hybrid printing of short and continuous carbon fibers on the mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of composites. The development of 3d printed composites showing increased stiffness and strength thanks to the use of continuous carbon fibers has offered new prospects for fused. A complex specimen geometry with multiple notches was also printed, with three different fiber layouts, to further validate the use of the embedded elements technique in.
The development of 3d printed composites showing increased stiffness and strength thanks to the use of continuous carbon fibers has offered new prospects for fused. This work could help engineers to design complex laminates with specific mechanical requirements by tailoring the orientation of continuous carbon fibers. The main purpose of this article is to study the structural characteristics of carbon fiber samples printed on a 3d printer, including embedded sensors, during 3d printing, through.
