The cure process of CFRP laminates induces residual stress inside the parts that causes geometrical unconformities. The most important unconformity is the spring-in that means the deviation of the flange-to-flange angle from the design angle. The spring-in value depends on some process parameters, such as the lay-up sequence of the plies, as demonstrated in previous works. The aim of this work is to study the dependence of the spring-in on the deviations in the orientation of the plies due to a hand process. A numerical tool was developed and experimentally tested.

Abstract
The cure process of CFRP laminates induces residual stress inside the parts that causes geometrical unconformities. The most important unconformity is the spring-in that means the deviation of the flange-to-flange angle from the design angle. The spring-in value depends on some process parameters, such as the lay-up sequence of the plies, as demonstrated in previous works. The aim of this work is to study the dependence of the spring-in on the deviations in the orientation of the plies due to a hand process. A numerical tool was developed and experimentally tested.File in questo prodotto:
