Abstract
This paper presents various manufacturing schemes for creating through-thickness reinforcement including stitching, tufting and 3D weaving. 3D weaves are promising for improving damage tolerance over large areas, where as stitching and tufting are suitable for local reinforcement. Several 3D woven architectures have been produced and evaluated for damage tolerance.
