Abstract

Thickness of infused components obtained under flexible moulding conditions is hard to control. Prior to impregnation the textile preform is constrained by a film, which pressurises the fabric when vacuum is applied. Hence, one of the important factors affecting the resultant thickness of the preform is its compressibility. Draping deformations affect the fabric properties and result in non-uniform thickness. This situation is particularly pronounced for thick components of complex shapes. This paper presents experimental measurements of yarn compaction and fabric compressibility at different draping angles, highlighting important topology features.
