Mesoscopic representative volume cells (RVCs), reflecting the internal structure of a 3-
Dimensional (3D) orthogonal weave composite, were reconstructed in this work from the X …

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 …

Performing a single but complex mechanical test on small structures rather than on coupons
to probe multiple strain states/histories for identification purposes is nowadays possible …

A large variety of different descriptors can be employed for describing 3D woven
composites. Each of them is targeted to a specific application, ranging from design, weaving …

This paper compares the ballistic impact damage behaviors between the three-dimensional
angle-interlock woven fabric and its reinforced composite (three-dimensional angle interlock …

The elastic properties of 3D through-thickness orthogonal interlock composite materials are
affected by the curvature of the yarns caused by compaction during the manufacturing …

A seal device as an important component of aeroengines has decisive influence on
performance, reliability, and working life of aeroengines. With the development of …

The tension–tension fatigue behavior of (the layer-to-layer) three-dimensional angle-
interlock woven composite (3DAWC) was investigated using the acoustic emission (AE) …

This chapter presents an overview of recent automotive applications of advanced
composites. A summary of available composites that could be used in automotive industries …

This article deals with an interlock woven composite and aims at providing a better
understanding of the dissipative mechanisms activated under cyclic loadings and describing …
