Title: Non-hoop winding effect on bonding temperature of laser assisted tape winding process
Relation to OTOM: A numerical model was designed and developed to capture the effect of laser-rays and their reflections on the nip-point temperature for non-hoop winding case (arbitrary winding direction). The developed algorithm was developed through OTOM.

Title: In-line physics-based model simulation for process modeling of laser tape winding
Relation to OTOM: Fast temperature prediction algorithm in laser-assisted tape winding (LATW) process through a model-based control system was proposed for an in-line monitoring simulation. The algorithm employed as a base flowchart for OTOM.
Title: Experimental and numerical analysis of laser reflection for optical-thermal process modeling of tape windingIn-line physics-based model simulation for process modeling of laser tape winding
Relation to OTOM: Changing the texture of materials was experimentally studied during the process to understand changing in reflectance from the surfaces. The observations suggest new modifications for the developed BRDF function to simulate the anisotropic reflection behavior as a function of temperature and surface texture. Further reflection model developments were continued in OTOM based on this study.
