Abstract
Three types of fabric, 2D woven and 3D stitched, were compared on their impact performance. Tests were performed at three different rates, from quasi-static to high velocity impact (100m/s). The paper addresses the energy absorption capacity of these textiles. Visual observations of the damage as well as different types of instrumentation were used to evaluate the behavior of these textiles. Also the perforation energy was calculated or derived from the experimental data. At quasi-static conditions, the woven structure offers a better resistance to delamination, but a lower resistance to penetration. At higher velocities, the 3D textile having the highest stitch density gives the best energy absorption.
