A study of two dimensional braided composites

A microstructure model of 2-D braided composite is developed. The fiber volume and crimp angle are evaluated by this model and are compared with experimental results. The maximum fiber volume fraction is also obtained. Effective stiffness of 2-D braided composite is obtained in a close form by the a...
