Publications

The main output of Alex's internship with the Institute for Mathematical Innovation was the publication of a research paper titled "An analytical model for wrinkle-free forming of composite laminates". In the article a novel model is developed and validated to rapidly predict the occurrence of wrinkling in the formation of composite laminate materials. Such materials find particular use in aerospace applications, and the novel model aims to act as an initial design tool to help save time and financial costs during the design stage of the manufacturing process.
