Tensile and flexural behaviors of additively manufactured continuous carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composites

Continuous carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CCFRP) composites are lightweight and strong materials that have been used in a wide range of applications in automotive and aerospace industries. Traditional manufacturing processes (e.g., lay-up and out of autoclave techniques) are not capable of fabricating complex composites. Additive manufacturing (AM) has been increasingly used to fabricate composites with complex geometries. In this study, CCFRP...
