Textile composite properties taking into account the preforming process

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter in a book

Abstract

The performance of textile-reinforced composite is primarily dominated by the internal architecture of the reinforcement. When a textile is formed over a mold with doubly curved surfaces, its fibers rotate away from its default position, inducing in-plane shear to the architecture. This change in textile geometry is then locked in the cured, finished composite part, ultimately affecting its performance. To investigate the change in textile composite property as a result of in-plane shear, both FE simulation and coupon-level experimental tests were performed on presheared 2D woven composite. The results are compared and analyzed.
