In the present work, the tension response of polypropylene (PP) based composites reinforced with Carbon/Kevlar fabrics was investigated. The weft, wrap, and binder are considered in the direction (XYZ) and woven into a 3D fabric. Two homogeneous fabrics with Carbon (CCC), Kevlar (KKK), hybrid Carbon/Kevlar (CCK), and hybrid Kevlar/Carbon (KKC) fabrics were produced using a hand-made spoke frame. The architecture of the fabrics was three-dimensional orthogonal (3D-O). Four different composite laminates were manufactured using a vacuum bag-assisted moulding technique. The tensile loading was applied using a Nano-UTM set-up at travel of +6.25/-3.1 mm and software-automated generation of stress-strain data. The results indicated that the tensile properties of thermoplastic 3D-O composites are sensitive. In all the composites, the peak stress, strength, and modulus were increased when noticed with the 2D fabric. The experimental results show that the tensile strength of CCK and CCC with carbon fibres used in their weft and warp direction was greater than that of KKC and KKK with Kevlar fibres used in fibres weft and warp direction. The hybridization and 3D orthogonal weaving method also increased the tensile strength. The observation were characterized through scanning electron microscope.

Fique is a fiber of South American origin that has adequate properties to be used as reinforcement in composite materials, recently there have been various research for the development of composite materials with this fiber type. This article compiles different studies into composite materials reinforced with fique fiber. Initially discussed the issues related to the properties and treatments most commonly used to fiber to improve their quality and adhesion, then the types of matrix and the main manufacturing techniques that have been used for the manufacture of composites reinforced with fique fiber are described, followed by the different tests and characterization tests that have been applied to them to know their main properties and finally, their applications and the use of micromechanical models to describe them.

This paper presents continuum damage mechanics analysis of twill woven composites. Element Free Galerkin formulation is utilized and enriched with mathematical representation of twill composite in a way that includes details of the wrap/weft/matrix without the requirement of a detailed mesh of individual components. Continuum damage mechanics formulation is developed within the meshfree context and applied to the twill composite.
