Abstract
New technical opportunities with regard to manufacturing and mechanical properties are opened up by the development of new integrally woven sandwich structures. In these fibre constructions, two fabric layers are separated by a woven-in system of z-directional fibres. After impregnation with a resin, the double-wall fabrics form the sandwich structure. The mechanical properties can be adjusted in a wide range through the number and the arrangement of the thread-linking system. A comparison with foam and honeycomb sandwich structures shows the potential of this new material class.
