Experimental Study of Mechanical Behavior of 3D Angle-Interlock Woven Fabrics under Cyclic Load

During the formation of complex shapes, textile reinforcement is subjected to large local and global deformation, which affects the quality of the final composite product. This study investigated the deformation behaviors of 3D angle-interlock woven fabrics, which were used in their dry state. Hence, both cyclic tensile tests and picture-frame type of shear tests were performed to compare the deformation processes. The results showed that the...
