“…The results showed that for the bi‐axial braids, an increase in braid angle produced reduced strength, axial modulus, and specific energy absorption (SEA), but an increase in strain to failure. Roy et al 19 studied the tensile response of thin‐walled tubular composites with multiaxial fiber architecture. They used a braid‐winding method to produce stacked overwound braid lay‐up.…”

Different failure modes occur in textile‐reinforced composite under applied loads. Fracture mechanism of braided composites are closely related to the geometry of braids. In the present study, fracture mechanism of glass/epoxy braided composite cylinders is investigated under tensile loads. For this purpose, glass/epoxy braided composites were fabricated using braids with braiding angles of 30°, 45°, and 57° to find the role of fiber path on the fracture mechanism. To determine the fiber path, helixes on the cylinders with aforementioned angles was considered and analyzed. New fixtures (jaws) were designed and manufactured for tensile testing of cylindrical composites. Tensile tests were carried out on the prepared samples to evaluate the failure modes of composites. The SEM micrographs of samples are provided after tensile test. Various failure modes were observed regarding the angle of the braid. Fiber breakage, matrix fracture, and debonding are the dominant modes that occur in braided composites proportional to the angle of braids. Fiber breakage is the dominant mode in the 30° angle braid reinforced composite, while the dominant failure mode in the 57° angle braid reinforced composite is matrix fracture. In composites with a braid angle of 45°, a combination of fracture modes occurred. In addition, energy absorption as well as specific energy absorption (SEA) of braided composite cylinders were also investigated and obtained from load–displacement curves. The results showed that the reinforced composite with a braid angle of 30° absorbs the lowest amount of energy (21.5 J) and also the lowest amount of specific energy (5375 J/kg). The maximum absorbed energy (67.7 J) and the maximum SEA (9675 J/kg) were observed in the reinforced composite with a braid angle of 45°.Highlights Fiber breakage is the dominant mode at the 30° angle braid reinforced composite.

Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation commonly used for telecommunications, navigation and food processing. More recently microwave technologies have found applications in fibre-reinforced polymer composites, which are increasingly used in aircraft structures. Microwave energy can be applied with low power (up to milliwatts) for non-destructive testing and high power (up to kilowatts) for heating/curing purposes. The state-of-the-art applications at high power include curing, three-dimensional (3D) printing, joining and recycling, whereas low-power microwave techniques can provide quality checks, strain sensing and damage inspection. Low-power microwave testing has the advantage of being non-contact, there is no need for surface transducers or couplants, it is operator friendly and relatively inexpensive; high-power microwave energy can offer volumetric heating, reduced processing time and energy saving with no ionising hazards. In this paper the recent research progress is reviewed, identifying achievements and challenges. First, the critical electromagnetic properties of composites that are closely related to the heating and sensing performance are discussed. Then, representative case studies are presented. Finally, the trends are outlined, including intelligent/automated inspection and solid-state heating.
