A woven textile structure is formed by weaving a first woven layer including first yarns and weaving a second woven layer including first yarns, where the woven layers are arranged in a stacked manner and are separated from each other. During the weaving of the first and second woven layers, second yarns are inserted along an intermediate span in the weft direction of the woven textile structure, where the second yarns are elongated to an elongated length during the insertion in the weft direction. First yarns of the first woven layer are interlaced with first yarns of the second woven layer and a second yarn of the intermediate span at a plurality of interlacing locations along the woven textile structure so as to define stitches at each interlacing location, where each stitch joins the first woven layer with the second woven layer.

A stitched double layer composite hose is provided. The stitched double layer composite hose includes a middle fabric pipe layer, an inner surface composite colloid material layer and an outer surface composite colloid material layer. The structure of the fabric pipe layer is weft-stitched double-layer unit structure. The double-layer unit structure includes an outer layer, an inner layer and stitched wefts. The inner layer includes inner layer warps and inner layer wefts; the outer layer includes outer layer warps and outer layer wefts. The stitched wefts interweave with the outer layer warps and the inner layer warps for conjoining the inner layer and the outer layer together. The fabric pipe layer weaved solves problems of the stitched double layer composite hose in the fabric pipe layer of traditional casing, with such advantages as high flexibility, less weaving point, less loss of yarn strength and less degree of torsion.

A vehicle component that includes at least one fiber preform. The fiber preform includes a substrate, a fiber bundle having one or more types of reinforcing fibers, and a thread. The fiber bundle is arranged on the substrate and attached to the substrate by a plurality of stitches of the thread to form a first preform layer having a principal orientation. The vehicle component includes a core having a geometry with at least one edge and at least one the fiber preforms positioned along the at least one edge, the core and the fiber preform being overmolded in a resin. A process of making the vehicle component includes providing the core having the at least one edge, positioning the at least one fiber preform along the at least one edge, and overmolding the core and the at least one fiber preform in the resin.
