Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure encompasses three-dimensional articles comprising flexible- composite materials and methods of manufacturing said three-dimensional articles. More particularly, the present system relates to methods for manufacturing seamless three- dimensional-shaped articles usable for such finished products as airbags/inflatable structures, bags, shoes, and similar three-dimensional products. A preferred manufacturing process combines composite molding methods with specific precursor materials to form fiber- reinforced continuous shaped articles that are flexible and collapsible. La présente invention concerne des articles en trois dimensions, qui comportent des matériaux composites souples, et des procédés de fabrication desdits articles en trois dimensions. Plus particulièrement, la présente invention porte sur des procédés de fabrication d'articles formés en trois dimensions, sans jointure, utilisables pour des produits finis tels que des structures gonflables/de coussins de sécurité gonflables, des sacs, des chaussures et des produits en trois dimensions similaires. Un processus de fabrication préféré combine des procédés de moulage composite avec des matériaux précurseurs particuliers afin de former des articles, façonnés de façon continue et renforcés par des fibres, qui sont souples et qui sont repliables.
