Woven material including double layer construction
A woven material including a four layer construction formed by distinct groups of warp threads, and a method of forming the woven material. The woven material may include a first group of warp threads, and an interior weft thread portion coupled to the first group of warp threads. The woven material may also include a second group of warp threads substantially surrounding the first group of warp threads and the interior weft thread portion, and an exterior weft thread portion coupled to the second group of warp threads.

Interlacing equipment may be used to form fabric and to create a gap in the fabric. The fabric may include one or more conductive strands. An insertion tool may be used to align an electrical component with the conductive strands during interlacing operations. A soldering tool may be used to remove insulation from the conductive strands to expose conductive segments on the conductive strands. The soldering tool may be used to solder the conductive segments to the electrical component. The solder connections may be located in grooves in the electrical component. An encapsulation tool may dispense encapsulation material in the grooves to encapsulate the solder connections. After the electrical component is electrically connected to the conductive strands, the insertion tool may position and release the electrical component in the gap. A component retention tool may temporarily be used to retain the electrical component in the gap as interlacing operations continue.
REINFORCED POLYMER CONCRETE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME
Described herein is a reinforced polymer concrete composition that includes a polymer concrete cured while in contact with reinforcing material with a polymer that has a backbone containing cyclohexane dimethanol (CHDM). The polymer concrete can include an unsaturated polymer resin (UPR) as a binding agent. The reinforcing material and polymer concrete mixture can be brought in contact with each other prior to the polymer concrete curing. A cross-linking agent and a free radical initiator can be inserted for triggering a reaction between the CHDM-containing polymer and the UPR. The polymer can be a polyurethane or copolyester, such as polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG).

INTERLACED COMPOSITES INTEGRATED WITH TRANSMISSION MATERIAL AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME
A machine for fabricating three-dimensional interlaced composite components including a frame, a deposition surface, a first set of two or more warp heads, a second set of two or more of warp heads, and a weft inserter. An interlaced composite component including a first set of two or more warp filaments parallel to each other and a first set of two or more weft filaments parallel to each other. Warp filaments are interlaced with, and bonded to, weft filaments s. Warp filaments and weft filaments are interlaced in at least two different weave patterns. Warp filaments and weft filaments are continuous, and the weave patterns transition from one pattern to another.
