Developing a camera-based measuring system to feedback control the fibre orientation for the braiding process of CFRP

open access: yesAdvances in Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering, 2021
Quality control systems are inevitable in the production of safety-relevant, textile composites. In the industry, predominantly optical measuring procedures, so-called Machine Vision Systems (MVS), became generally accepted. A critical quality feature of

An efficient melting probe for glacial research

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2021
In this paper, we present an electric-thermal drill with a novel design of a melting head that was developed within the EnEx-RANGE project. The design combines a short melting head with a large surface area of parabolic shape.

The Autonomous Pinger Unit of the Acoustic Navigation Network in EnEx-RANGE: an autonomous in-ice melting probe with acoustic instrumentation

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2021
The Autonomous Pinger Unit (APU) is an electro-thermal drill with acoustic instrumentation developed for the project EnEx-RANGE in view of a future space mission for the sub-surface exploration of Saturn's moon Enceladus.

Innovation in 3D Braiding Technology and Its Applications

open access: yesTextiles, 2021
Braids are generally divided into 2D braids and 3D braids. Two-dimensional braids include flat braids and circular braids. Circular braids represent three-dimensional textiles, as they enclose a volume, but consist of a two-dimensional yarn architecture.

An Overview on Methods for Producing Side-Emitting Polymer Optical Fibers

open access: yesTextiles, 2021
An overview of the most important methods for producing side-emitting polymer optical fibers is given. Based on a systematic literature and patent search, the methods that are applied in practice and explored in research are identified.

Phase Mask Pinholes as Spatial Filters for Laser Interference Lithography

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, 2023
Laser resonators have outputs with Gaussian spatial beam profiles. In laser interference lithography (LIL), using such Gaussian‐shaped beams leads to an inhomogeneous exposure of the substrate. As a result, dimensions of lithography‐defined features vary

Interpretable failure risk assessment for continuous production processes based on association rule mining

open access: yesAdvances in Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering, 2022
Continuous production processes are often highly complex and involve machine failures as well as unscheduled process downtimes. Failures result in the production of waste and in high opportunity costs, but their causes are not always apparent to machine ...

An American Investor in the Theatre Industry of Budapest

open access: yesHistorical Studies on Central Europe, 2022
In the interwar period, an American theatre and film entrepreneur had a determinant impact on the private theatre sector of Budapest. Ben Blumenthal (1883–1967) ran the Vígszínház (Comedy Theatre) in 1920–1926 and owned its building in 1920–1949.

Kinematic draping simulation optimization of a composite B-pillar geometry using particle swarm optimization

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
The present work presents an algorithmic approach to determine the optimal starting point for any complex geometry draping processes. The time-efficient Kinematic Draping Simulation (KDS) is used to assess the drapability of a geometry depending on many ...

4D Textiles Made by Additive Manufacturing on Pre-Stressed Textiles—An Overview

open access: yesActuators, 2021
Four-dimensional textiles are textiles that can change shape or function over time by the influence of a stimulus, mainly force and heat. In this review, the focus is on 4D textiles made by additive manufacturing which is built on the concept of 4D ...
