DOI: 10.1016/j.compscitech.2020.108301
Abstract: Abstract This paper presents a new approach for greatly increasing the delamination resistance of fibre reinforced polymer composites via through-the-thickness weaving of high-strength, high-toughness metal z-filaments. Dry carbon fabric preforms were woven in the through-thickness… read more here.
