Processes 2020, 8, 1147 14 of 16 avoid corner thickness deviation and resin accumulation. Furthermore, the use of intensifiers could further maximize thickness uniformity. Curing profiles and their interaction with bagging techniques showed no statistical significance in the controllability of laminate thickness variation. The coefficient of correlation exhibited a good agreement in terms of spring effect for all samples with no major data offset. The statistical analysis of VBO processing parameters and their effects on shape non-conformity provide important information for defect controllability in complex-shaped laminated composites. Understanding the consolidation of laminates with complex shapes provide vital insight to design experimental guidelines for corner thickness variation and spring effect for various processing parameters. The results presented in this study could also be extended to other OOA processes with various complicated part geometries, such as those employing inserts during manufacturing.
