Abstract VARTM and SCRIMP composite manufacturing processes use a highly permeable media to distribute the resin through the thickness of the composite. Hence, manufacturing simulations of resin flow in such processes requires reliable data for in-plane as well as transverse permeability. The goal of this study is to propose a method for simultaneous determination of the principal values of 3D-permeability tensor of fibrous reinforcements. The permeability components are calculated from experimental data, consisting of flow front position with time during resin impregnation in three dimensions from a radial source under constant pressure using the SMARTweave [Walsh (1993), Fink et al.(1995)] sensor system. Experimental results are compared with numerical simulation.

Electronic Scattering

We wish to report in this paper measurements of the inelastic scattering component due to the collective excitations (plasmons) and single particlehole excitations of the valence electrons in Al. Such scattering contributes to the diffuse electronic scattering seen in electron diffraction patterns and has recently been considered of significance in weak-beam images (see Gai and Howie) . A major problem in the determination of such scattering is the proper correction for multiple scattering. We outline here a procedure which we believe suitably deals with such problems and report the observed single scattering spectrum.In principle, one can use the procedure of Misell and Jones—suitably generalized to three dimensions (qx, qy and #x2206;E)--to derive single scattering profiles. However, such a computation becomes prohibitively large if applied in a brute force fashion since the quasi-elastic scattering (and associated multiple electronic scattering) extends to much larger angles than the multiple electronic scattering on its own.

AbstractWe propose a new moving pseudo-boundary method of fundamental solutions (MFS) for the determination of the boundary of a three-dimensional void (rigid inclusion or cavity) within a conducting homogeneous host medium from overdetermined Cauchy data on the accessible exterior boundary. The algorithm for imaging the interior of the medium also makes use of radial spherical parametrization of the unknown star-shaped void and its centre in three dimensions. We also include the contraction and dilation factors in selecting the fictitious surfaces where the MFS sources are to be positioned in the set of unknowns in the resulting regularized nonlinear least-squares minimization. The feasibility of this new method is illustrated in several numerical examples.
