This study attempted to fabricate heating fabrics using thin-film solar cells. A lightweight and flexible thin-film solar cell was used as the power supply, and fabric samples made of carbon fiber heating lines were used as heating elements. Single-factor experiments of three factors (solar cell voltage, heating time, and carbon fiber heating line arrangement) were conducted, and their influence on the heating effect was analysed. Orthogonal experiments and variance tests were used to determine the influence of the three factors and the optimal heating process. All influential factors were shown to be statistically significant. This kind of heating fabric can be used in warm clothing or for heated clothing.
This research aimed to explore the influence of fiber laying angles on the bending resistance properties of carbon fiber/foam sandwich structural composites. Four kinds of composites with the following laying angles: [0°]8, [0°/45°/90°/-45°]s, [0°/90°]4 and [45°/-45°]4 were prepared and tested in three-point bending experiments. The results obtained showed that the bending resistance performance was the best when the laying angle was [0°]8, while it was the worst when the laying angle was [45°/-45°]4. Besides, it was found that the tensile performance was the best when the fibers were arranged in the 0° direction when the strength utilisation rate was the highest. In addition, by observing the failure morphologies of the composites, the delamination and foam cracking were found in the four groups of composites. In contrast, the phenomenon of significant fracture was found on composites with a laying angle of [45°/-45°]4 only, indicating it had a poor bending resistance performance.

The glass fiber reinforced resin matrix composite I-beams were designed and formed via a type of novel bending pultrusion processing technique, and the three-point bending tests were carried out to analyze the mechanical bending performances. The obtained results show that the main failure mode of the composite I-beam under the bending load is the upper structure (top flange) cracks along the length direction of the fibers, and the cracks simultaneously propagate downwards in the vertical direction. The bifurcated cracks can be found at the junction area between the top flange and web. In addition, the main bending failure mechanism of the composite I-beam includes the matrix cracking, propagation of cracks, and final fracture failure. In particular, noting that when the crack reaches the I-shaped neck position, the lateral bifurcation occurs, and the resulting secondary cracks further extend in two directions, which leads to the serious damage between the top flange and web, and the ultimate fracture failure occurs.
