Orientation control during 2D-3D composite preforming
Non-crimp fabrics (NCFs) are employed in composite structures as an alternative to woven fabrics when there is a requirement for improved tensile strength and modulus. To exploit NCF properties, components are designed with optimised fibre directions that reinforce the predicted load paths. 2D to 3D...
