Abstract:Introduction. One of the reasons for undesirable delamination of polymer composites with fabric reinforcement is low transverse shear properties. It is known that the reinforcement of polymer fabric composites in the Z direction reduces the sensitivity to delamination and increases the viscosity of interlayer fracture. Various methods of three-dimensional reinforcement of polymer fabric composites are proposed in the literature. However, they complicate the manufacturing process of the structure. The problem i… Show more
