Computation of permeability of textile reinforcements

, 2005
Permeability of textiles is a key characteristic for composite manufacturing. Measurement of textile permeability is a time and resource consuming process, hence numerical prediction of the permeability is required. Using the law of Darcy, permeability can be derived from a simulation of the fluid flow, i.e.

Microscale Mapping of Fiber Strain and Damage in Composite Wrinkled Laminates Using Computed Tomography Assisted Wide‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...
