Abstract

The design and fabrication of preforms for advanced composites have gained considerable attention in light of the recently developed textile preforming techniques. It is within this realm of preforming technology that the full advantage of the knowledge of processstructure-property relations may be realesed. The fabrication history of these preforms directly determines composite micro-structure and resulting mechanical properties. Textile preforms may be loosely classified into two-dimensional (2–D) and three-dimensional (3–D) structures, depending on the degree of reinforcement between layers [1]. Figure 1 summarizes the major types and fabrication schemes for textile preforms.
