Abstract
Controlling voids to minimize the final porosity level is an important concern when processing advanced composite structures. In this study, the porosity evolution during processing of partially impregnated prepregs is investigated using interrupted cure cycles and optical microscopy. Laminates made of MTM 45-1/5HS carbon/epoxy prepreg subjected to different cure cycles, bagging conditions, and humidity levels were studied. Fiber tow geometry and gas permeability were measured to determine the amount of compaction and the interconnectivity of unsaturated zones in the laminates. Three types of voids were identified: inter-laminar, fiber tow and resin voids, all with different origins and evolution patterns. It is shown that gas transport (both in-plane and through-thickness), fiber bed compaction, and resin infiltration govern void evolution during processing. The results provide insights for development of representative transport models and to optimize processing cycles.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
