Özet
Fiber-reinforced composites are widely used in world industries such as
transportation vehicles, sports tools, space crafts, and more. This research investigates the
influence of the number of layers and fiber distribution on the mechanical properties of woven
fiber-reinforced composites by changing the number of layers or the manufacturing process.
Hand lay-up and infusion processes are used to manufacture the composite plates. Three
mechanical tests are conducted for all composite plates, such as Interlaminar shear stress
(ILSS), ultimate tensile strength (UTS), and ultimate flexural strength (UFS). Furthermore,
analyzing the microstructure of the laminates is conducted to evaluate fractal dimension (FD).
It is observed that the distribution of the fibers measured by FD had an effective role in
improving the mechanical properties. Also, the use of vacuum molds had an additional role in
improving the mechanical properties. One could conclude that all the mechanical properties
have proportional relationships with FD.
