Determination of as-built properties of fiber reinforced polymers in a wind turbine blade using scanning electron and high-resolution X-ray microscopy

The fiber volume fraction (FVF) and porosity in fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) depends strongly on the manufacturing process. These parameters influence the mechanical properties and thus the performance of an FRP. For this research, an epoxy-pre-impregnated glass FRP was investigated to determine...
