Abstract:
Conventionally, manufacturing of molded parts using composite materials has led to poor dimensional accuracy and tensile strength due to improper curing thus resulting in rejection or early/premature failure of composite part. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide simulation-based systems and methods for manufacturing/generating molded parts using reinforced composite materials. The optimized cure cycle is computed for a given component without carrying out numerous experiments. The present disclosure implements multiscale method and surrogate modeling in virtual testing for more accurate and faster manufacturing of molded parts. Process parameters for specified qualities (e.g., minimum residual stresses, minimum deformation, etc.) required for a part are determined along with least process manufacturing time. The resulting optimized time dependent cure cycle for each thermal zone of the heated mold is transferred to a master controller (e.g., system) which controls the entire curing processes with the use of feedback control.
