  2. OBJECTIVES • In this research, multiaxis 3D weaving methods are developed to make multiaxis woven preform and composites • Characterize the developed composites • Identified possible end-uses

  3. LITERATURE • Researches on textile structural composite have intensively been carried out by universities, research organizations and government laboratories for applications in defense, space and civilian areas for the last two decades. • Basic thrust on this type polymeric materials are attractive specific properties compared to that of metals. For instance, NASA-ACT program has encouraged the researchers to initiate fiber base advance materials [1-3].

  4. Traditional textile structural composite materials show improved characteristics of strength and stiffness compared to those of metals and ceramics. • However, they have low delamination resistance, which results in catastrophic failure[4,5]. • Three dimensional (3D) woven preforms have been developed for composite materials and they show high delamination resistance and fracture toughness due to the Z-fiber reinforcement [6-8].

  5. However, it is understood that Zfibergives rise to some reduction in-plane properties. • Toimprove the in-plane properties, additional fiber, which canbe called bias, should be introduced to the preform at anangle. • Early structures which have three sets of fibers as twobias fiber sets and filling were interlaced to each other tomake single layer triaxial woven [9-11]. Later, additional axial fiber was introduced to the single layer triaxial wovenfabric and was called quadrilateral fabric structure [12]. It isreported that the structure was open and had more isotropicproperties compared to those of 2D traditional plain woven [11].

  6. Multiaxis 3D woven preform and method were developedby Anahara and Yasui [13,14]. In this technique guideblocks were used to orient the bias fibers at ±45 [15]. • Farley developed a technique to make multiaxis structure byusing individual eye needle [16].

  7. Mood also developed a multiaxis fabric and method basedon jacquard technique [17]. • Bilisik and Mohamed developedmultiaxis 3D woven fabric which had many warp layers andmethod in which tube carriers were used to orient the biasfibers at an angle. It is found out that in-plane shear propertiesof the multiaxis 3D woven carbon/epoxy composite aresuperior to those of the 3D orthogonal woven carbon/epoxy composite [18,19]. • Uchida and coworkers made prototype multiaxis 3Dweaving based on Anahara’s guiding block principles [20,21]. • Recently, Bryn and Nayfeh and coworkers developed thetechniques to make multiaxis fabric used as connectors andjoint elements for defense related product [22,23].

  23. Conclusions • Multiaxis 3D woven carbon preform was developed and consolidated with epoxy resin. • The properties of the multiaxis 3D woven composites were compared to those of 3D orthogonal woven composites. • It was found that by the addition of ±bias yarns to the surface of the multiaxis 3D woven perform, the in-plane shear strength and modulus of the structure were increased. However, the other properties such as bending and interlaminar shear strength of the structure were decreased compared to those of the 3D orthogonal woven composite.

  24. These results have shown that the mechanical properties of the woven structure are strongly influenced by yarn orientation. • Consequently, newly developed multiaxis 3D woven composites will always be a compromise based on the end use requirement, and therefore, optimization of the structure becomes important.
