This innovation diverges from conventional methods by combining processes to reduce costs by using raw materials instead of organotapes, allowing customised material combinations and utilising residual heat from tape production. The new process uses carbon roving and molten low-viscosity PA6 granulates, processed through a new direct impregnation setup in siphon design. Key advancements include a high-speed impregnation module capable of up to 1 m/s with high-performance extruders, cost-effective infrared emitters for winding, and a powered consolidation unit with adjustable winding angles between ±65° and ±90°. Experiments demonstrate operational speeds of approximately 471 mm/min, with an optimal cross-winding speed of 354 mm/min due to the technical limitations of the laboratory extruder and IR emitter used. Based on the technical limitations of the current system, future improvements and methodological changes will be discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{AndraeKastenmeierGebhardtetal., author = {Andrae, Matthias and Kastenmeier, Andreas and Gebhardt, Jakob and Ehrlich, Ingo and Gebbeken, Norbert}, title = {Shock-tube tests on conventional windows: Exploring retrofit concepts for enhanced blast protection}, series = {International Journal of Protective Structures}, journal = {International Journal of Protective Structures}, publisher = {SAGE}, issn = {2041-4196}, doi = {10.1177/20414196241284297}, abstract = {Ensuring blast protection for existing buildings, especially addressing the vulnerability of conventional windows, is a significant challenge. Such unprotected windows can shatter even with moderate blast loads, posing a substantial risk of injury to occupants. This article discusses experimental research on enhancing the blast protection of single casement windows with insulating glass units and frames made of unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (uPVC). A retrofit concept using anti-shatter films, metallic sash reinforcements, adhesive bonding of the glazing to the sash frame, and a burglary resistance fitting-system was developed and tested in an explosion-driven shock-tube. Moreover, novel patches made of glass fiber-reinforced polymer applied to the corners of the window frames have been tested and proven effective in providing additional strength to the window. The study concludes that the tested combination of retrofit measures can significantly reduce hazards from window fragments without compromising functionality or aesthetics.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RomanoHoinkesEhrlichetal., author = {Romano, Marco and Hoinkes, Carl J.

The miniaturized dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuators (PA) were fabricated by means of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). We elucidate how to make the actuator samples scalable and applicable to any desired shape by the use of flexible inorganic zirconia substrates. For this purpose, we applied our developed embedding method to integrate the micro actuators in modern carbon/glass fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP/GFRP) materials. Next, the embedded actuator samples were mounted on a mechanical air profile-like fixture and placed in the icing wind tunnel iCORE. The samples were tested in rime ice conditions at temperatures of -15 to -20° C and air speeds up to 30 m/s. Unlike other groups we used a thin film zirconia substrate as dielectric for the plasma actuator. Due to the low substrate thickness of just 150 µm, an operating voltage of 2 kVRMS is already sufficient enough for a stable plasma formation. The experiments show that the operated actuator was able to prevent the ice formation and first indications of a De-icing function were also found. Hence, we show that it is feasible to realize an anti-icing system with zirconia-based plasma actuators operated at lower voltages compared to conventional ones.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LindnerBerndtJungbaueretal., author = {Lindner, Matthias and Berndt, Dominik and Jungbauer, Bastian and Ehrlich, Ingo and Schreiner, Rupert and Pipa, Andrei V. and Hink, R{\"u}diger and Foest, R{\"u}diger and Brandenburg, Ronny and Max, Alexander and Caspari, Ralf}, title = {Fabrication, surface integration and testing of miniaturized dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuators for active flow control applications}, series = {AIAA Aviation 2019 Forum, 17-21 June 2019, Dallas, Texas}, booktitle = {AIAA Aviation 2019 Forum, 17-21 June 2019, Dallas, Texas}, doi = {10.2514/6.2019-2998}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NiedernhuberEhrlichHoltmannspoetter, author = {Niedernhuber, Michal and Ehrlich, Ingo and Holtmannsp{\"o}tter, Jens}, title = {Fiber-Oriented Repair of Fiber Reinforced Plastics: Investigations on Tensile Specimens}, series = {4th Applied Research Conference - ARC 2014, 5th July 2014, Ingolstadt}, booktitle = {4th Applied Research Conference - ARC 2014, 5th July 2014, Ingolstadt}, editor = {Ziemann, Olaf and Mottok, J{\"u}rgen and Pforr, Johannes}, publisher = {Shaker}, address = {Aachen}, pages = {298 -- 302}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PongratzEhrlich, author = {Pongratz, Christian and Ehrlich, Ingo}, title = {Structural Dynamic Analysis of Thin Composite Plates Using Noncontact Measurement and Excitation}, series = {Applied Research Conference 2016 - ARC 2016, Augsburg, 24 June 2016}, booktitle = {Applied Research Conference 2016 - ARC 2016, Augsburg, 24 June 2016}, editor = {Mottok, J{\"u}rgen and Reichenberger, Marcus and Stolle, Reinhard}, publisher = {Pro Business Verlag}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-86460-494-2}, pages = {351 -- 358}, language = {en} } @techreport{PongratzEhrlich, author = {Pongratz, Christian and Ehrlich, Ingo}, title = {DampSIM: Lebensdauer{\"u}berwachung von faserverst{\"a}rkten Kunststoffen auf Basis der strukurdynamischen Werkstoffd{\"a}mpfung}, series = {Forschungsbericht 2017 / Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg}, journal = {Forschungsbericht 2017 / Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg}, editor = {Baier, Wolfgang}, organization = {Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg}, isbn = {978-3-9818209-3-5}, pages = {62 -- 63}, language = {de} } @techreport{PongratzEhrlich, author = {Pongratz, Christian and Ehrlich, Ingo}, title = {High-End-Strukturen f{\"u}r den Leichtbau - mit faserverst{\"a}rktem 3D-Druck}, series = {Forschung 2018 / Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg}, journal = {Forschung 2018 / Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg}, editor = {Baier, Wolfgang}, organization = {Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg}, isbn = {978-3-9818209-4-2}, pages = {64 -- 65}, language = {de} } @misc{JudenmannPongratzEhrlichetal., author = {Judenmann, Anna and Pongratz, Christian and Ehrlich, Ingo and H{\"o}fer, Philipp and Holtmannsp{\"o}tter, Jens}, title = {Additive Fertigung von endlosfaserverst{\"a}rkten Kunststoffstrukturen}, series = {M{\"u}nchner Leichtbauseminar 2022, 26.

It is not known whether the findings obtained from standardized tests can be transferred to curved structures or which adaptions are required. Therefore, a deeper understanding of the deformation and damage behavior of inconsistently curved structures is essential to transfer the observed impact behavior of flat specimens to general curved structures and therefore to utilize the full lightweight potential of a load-specific design. An accurate description of the procedure as well as the results of the experimental and numerical study of the low-velocity impact behavior of differently single-curved elliptic specimens is presented. To close the research gap of the impact behavior of geometries with curvatures between the plates and simplified leading edges, novel specimens geometries have been derived from established impact test standards. Glassfiber-reinforced specimens are subjected to an instrumented impact test at constant impact energy. This is numerically investigated by a stacked-layer model, which used cohesive zone modeling to enable the simulation of matrix cracking, fiber fracture and delamination. The resulting projected damage areas, as well as the force and deflection histories, were evaluated and section cuts were examined to discuss the damage morphology, formation and propagation process. Significant effects on maximum deflection, compliance and dynamic behavior on the size and morphology of damage were found.}, language = {en} } @misc{SchimmerGebhardtMotschEichmannetal., author = {Schimmer, Florian and Gebhardt, Jakob and Motsch-Eichmann, N. and Hausmann, Joachim M. and Ehrlich, Ingo}, title = {The effect of curvature on the low-velocity impact resistance of CF/PEEK laminates}, series = {30 Years IVW Anniversary Colloquium, Leibnitz-Institut f{\"u}r Verbundwerkstoffe Kaiserslautern, 2021}, journal = {30 Years IVW Anniversary Colloquium, Leibnitz-Institut f{\"u}r Verbundwerkstoffe Kaiserslautern, 2021}, language = {en} } @article{AfanasevHoeferHoltmannspoetteretal., author = {Afanasev, Anna and H{\"o}fer, Philipp and Holtmannsp{\"o}tter, Jens and Zimmer, Felix and Ehrlich, Ingo}, title = {Development of a continuous fiber-reinforced 3D printing process with a 6-axis robot arm: Process design and equipment}, series = {The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology}, journal = {The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology}, publisher = {Springer}, issn = {0268-3768}, doi = {10.1007/s00170-025-17263-3}, pages = {20}, abstract = {The utilisation of 3D printing processes in the fabrication of continuous fiber-reinforced composites confers a multitude of advantages, in particular flexible design based on structural requirements.
