This paper is devoted to the mechanics, modelling and analysis of fabric-reinforced composites and structural components. A theoretical and experimental characterisation of elastic properties of the textile composites is considered. Typical stress-strain diagrams for fibreglass fabric composites and composites reinforced with knitted fabrics loaded in tension at different angles are presented. ...

Clay-rich fault rocks have long been recognized to host distinctive fabric elements, and fault rock fabric is increasingly thought to play a fundamental role in fault mechanical behaviour in the brittle regime. Although the geometries of fabric elements in fault gouges have been described for almost a century, the genesis and evolution of these elements during shear, and their links to bulk mec...

nowadays, textile and woven fabric composites are taken into consideration forapplications in high mechanical properties and every in-plane direction. however, developments inmodelling and characterisation of the fabric reinforced composite materials are considered more inthe effects of element types used in the mesh generation of the crack tip. the type of elementselected for the crack tip, a ...

Mechanical properties of hybrid braided composite rebars are evaluated and compared to theoretical predictions which account for specific processing parameters including yarn size, braiding machine setup, and fiber type. Using a combination of high modulus carbon (Thornel P-55S) and aramid (Kevlar 49) fibers bars have been produced of up to 10 mm diameter with a Young's modulus of 200 GPa, a bi...

Due to its convenience, wear ability, affinity, continuously monitoring biological signal, etc., fabric electrodes used in biological signal acquisition attracted more and more interest from researchers around the world. Fabric electrode is a kind of intelligent textiles, and its application is very prominent in biological signal acquisition, supercapacitors and ECG (electric signal) monitoring...

Formaldehyde is one of the main indoor pollutants, and living in an environment with formaldehyde for a long time can cause serious damage to human body. In this paper, non-woven fabrics new reduced graphene oxide air filter materials were used perform static adsorption tests on volatilized from glue. The results show that material has good performance, saturation as 4 hours, which twice F6 fab...
