Resin flow during laminate consolidation

In overcoming the shortcomings of the earlier models, Dave et al. [21,22] proposed a comprehensive three-dimensional consolidation and resin flow model that can be used to predict the following parameters during cure (1) the resin pressure and velocity profiles inside the composite as a function of position and time, (2) the consolidation profile of the laminate as a function of position and time, and (3) resin content profile as a function of position and time.
