Abstract
A new method of transversal strengthening of a laminated fabric-reinforced composite is proposed. The fabric pack is punched with needles for felting, which partly pull out and damage the warp/weft threads by barbs, pulling some fibers in the direction of thickness (Z-direction). By increasing the density of needle punches per unit area in the felting zone, it is possible to increase the ability of a layered composite to resist transversal...
