“…The local longitudinal stiffness on the surface of the sample was distributed with the resin rich channels being the lowest, surface weft tow being the intermediate, and the binder region being the highest, which resulted in this strain distribution. Similar strain patterns have been reported on different types of 3D woven composites [5,25]. The strain distribution around the notch exhibited a pattern similar to the typical "butterfly" pattern in an isotropic sample.…”

“…Developed from the traditional weaving technology, 3D woven composites provide better through-thickness properties and higher post-impact strength compared to the traditional 2D laminated composites [3,4]. However, the in-plane quasi-static properties of the 3D woven composites are generally lower than the 2D laminates due to fibre crimping induced by the interlacing movement during weaving process [1,5], and the fatigue properties of the 3D woven composites also seem to be lower than the comparable 2D composites [2,6,7,8]. The advantage of 3D woven composites is that they can be tailored to specific applications where certain mechanical properties (such as impact tolerance) are desired while other properties (such as in-plane tensile strength) are less critical.…”

Composite Structures, 131, Additional Information:• This paper was accepted for publication in the journal Compos- AbstractThis paper presents a comprehensive study on the open-hole quasi-static tensile and tension-tension fatigue behaviour of an orthogonal and an angle-interlock 3D woven carbon/epoxy composite. The full-field strain distribution during quasi-static tests was characterised using digital image correlation (DIC), and the fatigue damage behaviour was monitored using an infra-red camera. The notched tensile strength was less than 17% lower than the un-notched tensile strength and not very sensitive to the notch size. The fatigue specimens were loaded with maximum stress of about 60% of the ultimate failure stress and no complete fracture occurred after 5,000,000 cycles. The residual fatigue strength was also found to be similar to the quasi-static tensile strength in both weaves. The surface crack initiation and progression during fatigue loading was identified using thermoelastic stress analysis which revealed that the orthogonal weave had larger surface damage area than the angle-interlock weave.

“…The weaving process followed ensures high consistency of the preform architecture and minimal waviness of the in-plane fibres in both the warp and weft directions. Several experimental studies [2][3][4][5][6][7][8] have shown that there is very low waviness of the warp and weft directional tows, which allows enhanced mechanical properties to be achieved. This category of composites is characterized with practically straight and well-aligned in-plane fibres.…”
