OverviewThe mechanical behavior of woven material is difficult to study, both from a theoretical and an experimental point of view; in particular these materials can be approached either as a continuous material (macro scale) or as an assembly of woven fibres (micro scale). In this book, some questions related to the analysis of the textile membranes used in the civil engineering are analyzed. The design of sails for ships, presented in Chapter 2, is a new application which presents many similarities with those of civil engineering. Chapters 3 and 4 are devoted to the analysis of the mechanical behavior of woven fabrics as an assembly of fibers, and also cover the micro-macro transition. Finally, the book concludes by examining the link between the constitutive material of the fiber and its mechanical behavior.
