Torsional Load

An experimental study on the effects of braided processes on the torsional strength, torsional modulus and failure modes of the three-dimensional braided composite tubes are presented. Based on the movement of carries, the yarn traces of three-dimensional braided composite tubes are analyzed systematically. Four different three-dimensional braided composite tubes are formed by resin transfer molding, and a number of torsional tests are performed respectively using a special test device. It is found that the torsional strength of three-dimensional five-directional braided composite tubes is higher than others, while the torsional modulus of three-dimensional multi-layer wrapping braided composite tubes is the highest. Furthermore, the damage behaviors of 3D braided composite tubes are significantly influenced by braiding process. One focus is to evaluate the damage mechanism of three-dimensional braided composite tubes by cutting the specimens and using scanning electron microscopy. Under torsional load, three-dimensional five-directional braided composite tubes and three-dimensional surface-core five-directional braided composite tubes are fractured in compression and shear failure, while three-dimensional multi-layer wrapping braided composite tubes and three-dimensional seven-directional braided composite tubes are split open in tensile and shear failure.

3D Braided Composites

In this paper the fabricating technology of three dimensional (3D) integrated braided composite I beam is researched, including: braiding technology of 3D braided I beam preform, the orientation of fiber-tow in the I beam preform, the optimizing of process parameters of resin transfer molding (RTM) for 3D braided composite I beam, and the design of mould for consolidation of composite I beam. The quality of 3D braided composites is good analyzed by ultrasonic A-scan, void content calculation and microscope observation. The research result will provide a good way for designing and fabricating high performance 3D integrated braided composite components with irregular cross section.
