Abstract: A process for manufacturing a cylindrical composite component comprises includes producing a fibrous texture in the form of a strip by three-dimensional or multi-layer weaving, winding the fibrous texture on several superimposed lathes on a mandrel with a profile corresponding to that of the component to be manufactured so as to form a fibrous preform, densifying the fibrous preform by a matrix. When the fibrous texture is wound on the mandrel, a web including a fugitive material filled with carbon nanotubes is interposed between the adjacent turns of the fibrous texture.

Abstract: A composite platform for a fan of an aircraft turbine engine. The platform includes an elongate wall and is configured to extend between two fan blades. The wall includes an aerodynamic outer surface and an inner surface, on which a fastening tab is located, wherein the fastening tab is configured to be attached to a fan disc. The fastening tab is integrally formed with a metal reinforcement which has a plate having an elongate shape and which extends over more than 50% of the longitudinal extent of the wall, the wall being produced by overmolding a resin on the plate so as to be integrated into the wall.

Abstract: A composite platform for an aircraft turbine engine fan includes a wall of elongate shape that is configured to extend between two fan blades. The wall has an aerodynamic external face and an internal face on which is disposed a fixing tab configured to be fixed to a fan disc. A method for manufacturing the composite platform includes the steps of: a) producing a preform by three-dimensionally weaving of fibers, b) unbinding some of the fibers of the preform to detach at least one longitudinal layer of fibers from the rest of the preform, c) inserting a metal reinforcement between this layer and the rest of the preform, and d) injecting a resin into the preform so as to form said wall and secure the reinforcement to this wall.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a composite part reinforced with nanotubes, includes stacking a plurality of composite plies of prepreg and at least one composite ply integrating nanotubes, the at least one composite ply integrating nanotubes being positioned in an inter-ply space between two composite plies of prepreg, wherein the at least one composite ply integrating nanotubes is a ply having a thermoplastic component, the nanotubes being integrated in the thermoplastic component.

Abstract: A manufacturing method for a component made from composite material, in particular of a turbomachine, includes the steps of producing a preform with a fibrous reinforcement comprising a first fibrous portion and a second fibrous portion, and injecting a pressurized matrix into an injection chamber of an injection mold, in which the preform is arranged. The method further includes the steps of polymerizing the preform and positioning a flexible pocket that encloses a fluid and that is arranged between the first fibrous portion and the second fibrous portion before the injection step. The fluid is configured to apply an additional pressure to the preform of the fluid during the polymerization step.
