Defect formation during preforming of a bi-axial non-crimp fabric with a pillar stitch pattern
(2016)
Journal Article
To capture the asymmetrical shear behaviour of a bi-axial NCF with a pillar stitch, a non-orthogonal constitutive model was developed and implemented in finite element forming simulations. Preforming experiments indicate that the local distribution o... Read More about Defect formation during preforming of a bi-axial non-crimp fabric with a pillar stitch pattern.
