Abstract

This paper reports the analytical prediction of effective transverse electrical permittivities of plain weave, twill weave, 4-harness irregular satin, as well as 5-harness and 8-harness satin fabric composites with lossy constituents. Analytical solutions of the effective properties are presented. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effects of fiber volume fraction and fabric architecture on the composite effective transverse dielectric behavior. Key words: electrical permittivity, plain weave, twill weave, satin weave, fabric composite, analytical solution.
