Topic: “Model and Data-Based Approach for Leakage Localisation using Multiple Flow Sensors for Processing of Fibre Reinforced Plastics”. - Investigation, planning, and development of the experimental vacuum bagging concept, test execution, calculation, and scientific evaluation of the results using simulation software (ANSYS CFX & Fluent) and programming (Python). - Further development of two-stage leakage detection on vacuum assemblies for fibre composite high-performance components by establishing a correlation between volumetric flow rate and leakage position. - Developed recommendations for optimisation of leakage detection on vacuum bags by reducing the search area by a minimum factor of four. - More precise detection of single leaks (~78%) in smaller areas by assessing the sensor data with the help of triangulation principle and machine learning techniques (RNNs).
