This work addresses the rheological flow behavior of epoxy resins, applied in the industries wind energy, automotive and aviation for the manufacture of endless fiber reinforced plastic parts in Liquid Composite Molding processes. The consequences of the discovered shear-thinning flow behavior on the infiltration of porous fibrous media are investigated by means of a numerical parameter study with CFD simulations and are verified by filling experiments. Furthermore, the effects of wall vibrations, introduced by a vibration engine, on Liquid Composite Molding processes are studied.
