Fiber Jamming and Fiber Matrix Separation during Compression Molding
Fiber jamming is perhaps the least understood defect in molding of polymer composites. This paper presents a description of the problem, introduces a mechanistic model and a dimensional analysis developed to predict fiber distribution in ribbed sections.
