Collection description

This thesis work focuses on the realisation process of braided preforms using hemp fibres. The work can be subdivided into three parts: Section I: Literature review Section II: Comparison of different analytical processes to calculate the value of Cover Factor and developing of a new approach to obtain it. Section III: Mechanical properties of braided hemp preforms. The braiding technique was used to obtain 2D biaxial and triaxial preforms, with a forecasting approach towards the production parameters and the development of a specific tool for it. With the analytical approach developed in the past, it's clear that, especially in the triaxial preforms, there will be some error in the final calculation of Cover Factor, so it has been necessary to find a unique approach that is valid for all the produced cases. The use of the statistical approach, in this case, permits to obtain a value of predicted Cover Factor and consequently of the volumetric percentage of fibres that is really close to the wanted one. This thesis project established a valid method to compare the value of the Cover Factor obtained with the statistical approach and the one obtained in the experimental production. The last part of this work focuses on the study of the mechanical properties of the hemp braided composites, the influence of the value of braiding angle, and the comparison between biaxial and triaxial braided preform with the same Cover Factor that corresponds to the same fibres volume fraction.
