TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the potential of X-ray micro-computed tomography (Xray micro CT) to characterize the micro-structural variation of four different 3D warp-interlaced fabrics.

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of in-plane tensile properties of two single-ply non-crimp 3D orthogonal weave E-glass fiber composites on one side and a laminate reinforced with four plies of plain weave Eglass fabric on the other is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a comparative experimental study of 2D and 3D woven glass/epoxy composites under in-plane tensile loading is presented, where the results demonstrate that the non-crimp 3D orthogonal woven composites have significantly higher inplane strengths, failure strains and damage initiation thresholds than their 2D woven laminated counterpart.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of core stitching density on the transient response of three simply supported sandwich panels loaded in a shock tube is experimentally studied in a novel type of sandwich material, TRANSONITE made by pultrusion of 3-D woven 3WEAVE E-glass fiber composites skin preforms integrally stitched to polyisocyanurate TRYMER TM 200L foam core.

TL;DR: In this article, the internal geometry of a carbon fiber non-crimp 3D orthogonal woven composite is presented, including: waviness of yarns, cross sections of the yarn, dimensions of yarn cross sections, and local fiber volume fraction.
