Stiffness and strength behaviour of woven fabric composites
Takashi Ishikawa,Tsu-Wei Chou +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, three analytical models for the investigation of the stiffness and strength of woven fabric composites are presented, i.e., the Fibre undulation model (FDM), Fibre Uniform Model (FUSM) and Multimodal Model (MMM) for modelling the knee stiffness and knee stress in plain weave composites, and a bridging model to simulate the load transfer among interlaced regions in satin composites.
