The Real-Time Detecting Application of CNTs in 3D Braided Composite Material

Abstract

This paper pay attention to the Carbon Nanotubes Threads (CNTs) in the 3D Braided Composite Material . CNTs as a piezoelectricity sensor, can be braided in the 3D Braided Composite Material. The resistance of the sensor will be changed with the correspondent stress and strain on the 3D Braided Composite Material. The resistance of the Carbon Nanotubes Threads can be detected by computer. So, the stress and strain on the 3D Braided Composite Material can be obtained betimes.
