| Abstract: | Fibrous tows used in continuous fibre-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) deform
geometrically during the production of composite products. The cross-sectional geometry of the tow is influenced by the load-induced deformation mechanisms. A study of the effect of two commonly assumed geometrical tow shapes on an equivalent pressure distribution in a tow-on-a-pin spreading arrangement was performed. The preliminary results show that both elliptic and parabolic tow geometries have qualitatively the comparable equivalent pressure distributions. |
