Digital image and volume correlation (DIC and DVC) are increasingly being used to
measure the deformation and damage behaviour of composite materials. The …

Thanks to their superior performance including greater cohesion, good mechanical and
delamination behaviors, and excellent formability properties, 3D warp interlock woven …

In the past few decades, the development of aircraft engines has targeted high bypass ratios
and lightweight construction. The use of lighter and larger fan blades can facilitate the …

This paper investigates the effect of the fabric architecture and the z-binding yarns on the
compression after multiple impacts behavior of composites. Four fiber architectures are …

In this work, a hierarchical multiscale analysis method was used for 3D woven composite
leaf spring landing gear. The structural finite element models at micro, meso and macro …

This paper presents the hybrid effect on the bending progressive damage of three-
dimensional (3D) angle-interlock woven composites. Three types of 3D angle-interlock …

Computational models with high precision and efficiency are in urgent need for the damage
analyses of 3D angle-interlock woven composites which are widely accepted in composites …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) orthogonal woven composites have potential application
as a material for aeroengine blades, which are required to withstand the impact of a bird …

This paper studied the effect of different fibres and their architectures on the low-velocity
impact (LVI) and quasi-static compression after impact (CAI) characteristics of textile fibre …

Three dimensional (3D) woven composites have attracted the interest of academia and
industry thanks to their damage tolerance characteristics and automated fabric …
