Modeling Bending Rigidity of Nonwovens with 2D Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

A theoretical model was developed to describe the bending behaviour and property of nonwovens with two-dimensional structure. The bending and tensional behaviours of single fibre with and without slippage in a bent fabric were analyzed. The method determining the neutral plane of bent nonwovens and the bending rigidity of fabrics with general two-dimensional structure were developed, incorporating fibre orientation distribution, number of fibres, fibre original position before bending and the Poisson’s ratio of the fabric. The analyses also give the fibre orientations that lead to the maximum and minimum contributions to the bending rigidity of the nonwovens in laminate and sandwich structures
