Analysis of fiber-reinforced composite plates utilizing curvilinear fiber trajectories
… located circular holes were manufactured using a fiber placement technique. With two plates the fibers were steered around the holes in curvilinear trajectories. With the two other plates the fibers were placed in the conventional straight line format. For the case of the curvilinear trajectories, …

Influence of Consolidation and Interweaving on Compression Behavior of IsoTruss™ Structures
… and helical members. At the intersections, the fiber tows can be interwoven to achieve mechanical interlocking for increased joint integrity. Interlocking introduces gaps and curvilinear fiber paths similar to the crossovers in filament-wound structures, potentially facilitating local …

Analysis and Design of Variable Stiffness Composite Cylinders
… situation is achieved mainly through the use of curvilinear fibers within a fiber-reinforced composite laminate, though the possibility of thickness variations and discrete stiffening elements is also allowed. These three mechanisms are incorporated into the constitutive laws for thin shells …

Finite Element Modeling of Tow-Placed Variable-Stiffness Composite Laminates
… have made it possible to manufacture curved-fiber composite tow paths. A composite structure with curved-fiber tow paths can be formed in a manner similar to filament winding. The result is a laminate with spatially varying stiffness and response. This manufacturing method can also result in …
