Abstract
In order to analyse the bending rigidity of woven fabrics in any direction, the authors have theoretically derived a versatile equation (19) without neglecting twist effects of constituent yarns. Assuming that yarns are elastic and homogeneous and no interaction exists in yarns, the twist effects could be described as a function of flexural rigidities in principal directions of woven fabrics, and Poisson's ratio of yarns (eq. (25)). However, because observed values do not always agree with theoretical values, the authors have introduced a parameter n (eq. (27)) which relates to V introduced by Cooper (eq. (28)).
