Abstract

A better apprehension of the behaviour of the interface between sheets of woven reinforcement during the forming of dry fabrics is necessary for a better optimization of the LCM processes. Even if numerical studies are carried out to simulate multi-layer forming, the contact between the layers is very roughly modelled using an approximate friction coefficient. To knowledge, only few preliminary results can be found concerning the contact fabric/fabric. In order to understand and characterize the contact between layers of different fabrics, a specific friction device has been designed in our lab. This machine was designed with the aim of carrying out tests as well on fabric/ fabric, fabric/metal but also fibre/fibre friction. After a short presentation of the device, results concerning steel/steel friction will be presented in order to validate the device. Then first results obtained about fabric/fabric contact will be given, in order to point out the contacts mechanism involved.
