Fiber orientation

    No headers

    The direction of the fibers' major axis, relative to the flow direction in fiber-filled materials as shown in the diagram below where:

    1. Randomly-oriented fibers are found near the injection location.

    2. Flow-aligned fibers are found in the converging flow area.

    3. Transversely-aligned fibers are found in the diverging flow area.

    4. Fibers parallel to the flow direction are found in the restricted flow area.
