Machine Learning Optimization for VARTM Carbon Polymer Laminates
Abstract: Vacuum-assisted resin transfer moulding (VARTM) is a key low-cost, out-of-autoclave process for manufacturing large-scale carbon-fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates crucial to aerospace wings, wind-turbine blades, marine hulls, and automotive structures. Unpredictable resin flow often leads to voids, dry spots, and race-tracking defects, resulting in 27.9% scrap rates and lengthy, costly trial-and-error design cycles. Although surrogate models provide rapid impregnation predictions for simple flat-plate geometries, vision-based monitoring is limited to idealized …

Effect of Blunt Truncation in an Aerospike Nozzle
Abstract: Aerospike nozzles are gaining attention as a more advanced alternative to conventional bell nozzles, mainly because they can perform efficiently across a wide range of altitude conditions. Unlike traditional converging–diverging nozzles, aerospike designs naturally adjust to changes in ambient pressure, allowing the exhaust flow to expand more effectively. This results in better thrust performance under varying operating conditions, making them a strong candidate for future aerospace propulsion systems. In this …
