Assessment of the variability of unidirectional prepregs at multiple scales by Silvia Gomarasca, S. M. A. Hossein, Ran Tao, Benedikt Boos, Christoph Queck, Daniel Peeters, Bilim Atli-veltin, Martin Gurka, Clemens Dransfeld

“…It has been shown that three-dimensional microstructural variability at the single-fibre level can be resolved by X-ray micro-computed tomography (XCT). However, to define a representative microstructural fingerprint of a given tape, investigations at the required small voxel size lead to limited volumes of observation, which might not be representative. …”
