Transverse compaction and in-plane shear deformartion are the dominative deformation mode for woven preform during forming process. A full finite element model of the 2.5D woven composites has been established by the computed tomography (CT) in this paper. Based on the energy method, the effective orthotropic/anisotropic stiffness coefficientsCijare calculated by performing a finite element analysis (FEA) of this full cell model. Using this model, the effects of the compaction and shear deformation of the 2.5D woven preform on the composites stiffness are investigated in detail. Compared the results of the static tensile tests, the rationality of the model and the method is verified.

In industrial processes, piercing and trimming are essential because composite structures are usually manufactured in a near-net shape to reduce machining operations. Punching and shear cutting using out-of-plane shear loading are expected to increase productivity. Nevertheless, little is known about the effects of such operations on polymer-matrix composites. This study presents on the characterization of piercing damage in typical carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) cross-ply laminates [0°2/90°2]s after punching using quasi-static (QS) and drop-weight impact (DWI) loadings. During QS punching, the upper and lower ply interfaces delaminate due to the high shear stress to cut fibers and gradual shear deformation in the middle ply; however, during DWI punching at a low impact velocity, delamination of the lower ply interface can be reduced due to the localization of shear deformation, as compared to that in QS punching. Finally, the damage accumulation process during DWI punching is discussed.
