RT info:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesis T1 Diseño de intersección tipo K en fibra de carbono para tubos A1 Gonzalez Perdomo, Jehoshua A2 Grado en Ingeniería Mecánica K1 Fibra de carbono K1 Unión tubular AB The following project shows the development of intersections with K-type geometry incarbon fibre for joining tubes, which could be used in tubular frames or structures. Theultimate goal will be the analysis of the solutions developed, studying the viability of the different manufacturing processes of the intersections and culminating the study with the test of these joints (until the break), showing the conclusions obtained from theexperimental procedure.In this case, joints have been developed using 3 different types of manufacturing processes, where 3D printing has been used for making molds and water-soluble cores.Likewise, carbon fibre has been processed using wet laminates with vacuum curing.The main objective is to conclude whether this type of joints would be suitable to be usedin tubular structures with carbon fibre tubes, being able to establish a reliable alternativeto the traditional structures using aluminium/steel tubes joined by welding.
