Abstract

In this chapter a detailed theoretical analysis for in-plane impregnation in multilayer woven (MLW) fabrics is reported in order to understand the mechanism of void formation. Unlike the previous works, where the void is formed in the plane of one layer of woven fabric, the void formation in the cross-section of MLW fabrics is presented. Based on two simplified unit cells, which were identified from two typical multiple modes of MLW fabrics, a mathematical model is developed to analyze the formation and size of voids. The flow front and void formation processes are also numerically simulated using the control-volume method.
