2. Textile characteristics

3. E modulus of biaxial stich

4. E modulus directional (reference: modern yacht design)

5. Textile CRIMP (reference: modern yacht design) A textile weave stretches before it absorbs force.

6. CRIMP analysis Calculate an approximate value of CRIMP for PLAIN and SATIN 8 and compare their values. Consider a material (laminate) made with these textiles and assume that the resin strain limit is 10%. How many procent of the fibers strength are then accutally used as reinforcement?
