Analyse of Woven Reinforcement Preforming by Experimental Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
An experimental device of dry preform stamping was designed and carried out for the first stage of the RTM process. This tool was developed to test the feasibility to obtain specific double curved shape constituted with dry fabric reinforcement. Optical strain measurement can quantify defects on the composite piece. It is just enough to change the desired punch-die set of the preform. This tool could be used to validate numerical simulation of the process.

Influence of the Dry Woven Fabrics Meso-structure on Fabric/fabric Contact Behaviour
The first stage of the RTM process concerns the preforming of the part. During the preforming of multilayered reinforcements, frictions between the plies occur. An experimental device designed to analyse the ply/ply, ply/tool and yarn/yarn frictions has been set up. Specific contact behaviour for ply/ply friction is directly related to shocks taking place between overhanging yarns of each sampl...
متن کاملStrength Prediction of Notched Woven Composite Plates using a Cohesive Zone Approach
The present paper is concerned with modelling damage and fracture in notched woven fabric composites. Previous experimental work has shown that damage at a notch in a variety of GFRP and CFRP composites based on woven fabric reinforcement comprises matrix damage and fibre tow fracture along the plane of maximum stress. It is these experimental observations that inform the failure modelling deve...
متن کاملInvestigations on the Reinforcement of Mechanical Properties of Gypsum Composites Containing E-glass Woven Fabrics
Glass fiber reinforced gypsum composites are new building materials that have been used in covering interior walls. Reinforcement by means of woven fabrics as a three dimensional material is an alternative to the use of short fibers. The application of appropriate fabrics can improve mechanical properties of gypsum composites. The aim of this research article is to investigate the effect of the...
