Anisogrid carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) lattice shells are one of the most efficient designs to minimize mass in heavily loaded structures for space vehicles. They comprise a regular pattern ...
Fig. 1 Schematic and theoretical results of strong-confinement rib-loaded waveguide. (a) Schematic of strong-confinement rib-loaded waveguide with electrodes. The inset shows the cross-section view of ...
NIAR and ATLAS have managed to develop a complex thermoplastic rib structure by combining 2 manufacturing techniques : thermoforming and injection overmoulding—commonly known as overmoulding—, the ...
