A mechanistic model for tensile property of continuous carbon fiber reinforced plastic composites built by fused filament fabrication

Lightweight and high-strength continuous carbon fiber reinforced plastic (C-CFRP) composites have become promising materials for aerospace, automotive, and sports applications. Recently, fused filament fabrication (FFF) technology enables the production of geometrically complex C-CFRP components that are difficult to fabricate using conventional manufacturing processes. In this study, a novel mechanistic model to predict tensile strength and...
