4. Properties of woven fabrics

The whole of Part 3 has shown the importance of the number and diversity of parameters needed to describe a woven fabric, with a view to reproducing it and, ultimately, anticipating its morphology and mechanical behavior. In this section, we use simple notions of geometry and the mechanics of the woven structure to understand the evolution of its various behaviors as a function of the material and structural parameters of the fabric and its basic constituents....
