stress distribution is an interesting factor in designing products for different
applications where load-bearing aspect is important (Figure 2.14).
2.3.5.4 Biaxial Structures
Biaxial technical structures are formed as a combination of magazine weft
insertion and a mislapping guide bar to obtain the lengthwise and width-
wise reinforcements respectively.
2.3.5.5 Multiaxial Structures
Multiaxial multi-ply structures are fabrics bonded by a loop system, con-
sisting of one or several yarn layers stretched in parallel. Said yarn layers
may have differe ...
