Abstract
/W), and superb robustness. Most innovatively, the nonuniform processing could section LIGP-H into subzones with independently controlled heating performance, rendering various designable patterns. The above unique characteristics guarantee the LIGP-H to be highly reliable for in situ curing composites with flat, curved, and even inhomogeneous structures. With enormous energy-savings (∼85%), superb curing accuracy, and comparable mechanical strength, the proposed device is advantageous for assuring high-quality and highly efficient manufacturing.
