Air-texturisation is a process that adds bulkiness to bundles of fibres. In this study, the permeability and compaction behaviour air-texturised glass fibre rovings are experimentally characterised compared conventional unidirectional rovings. Based on radial impregnation experiments single-step compaction/decompaction tests, following main findings highlighted: Compared unidirectional-rovings, normalised was approximately three times higher along direction 40 transverse direction....
Flow-induced fiber-bed compaction has considerable effects on through-thickness permeability due to resulting changes in fiber-volume-fractions. This study introduces a novel method for the simultaneous characterization of and unsaturated out-of-plane engineering textiles one single experiment. The measurement technique relies visually tracking flow-front positions during impregnation using camera rigid tool equipped with pressure sensor transparent window. strategy allows flow-induced be...
