PHASE I WILL CONSISTOF FABRICATION OF THE GENERIC TEST BAR MECHANISM WITH A FIXED FIBER FRACTION AT VARIOUS SQUEEZE PRESSURES. PHASE II WILL CONSIST OF FABRICATING A FULL SCALE COMPONENT USING THE INTEGRATED COMPOSITE FLOW CAST SYSTEM. THE TEST DEVICE FABRICATED IN PHASE I WILL BE USED TO CORRELATE TEST DATA WHERE TEST BARS CAN'T BE EXTRACTED PRACTICALLY FROM THE FULLSCALE COMPOSITE COMPONENT.
