Abstract
The draping behaviour of woven fabrics in moulds is essential for the production of textile composites that should fulfil specific aesthetic and performance requirements. This study focuses on the draping behaviour of multiple layers of natural jute and glass fibre woven fabrics and their hybrid combinations. Results show that it is not only the number of layers that plays a vital role in determining the overall draping behaviour of multilayer reinforcements, but also the order in which the setup is prepared. Image processing techniques using Matlab were performed to describe the draping behaviour of single, double and triple layer setups. 16 Refs.
