ABSTRACT
This paper, introducing some recent research progress, consists of two parts: the shear deformation analysis and Poisson's ratios for woven fabrics. The analytical methods of the shear moduli and Poisson's ratios for woven fabrics will enable more rigorous studies on such important issues as fabric bending and draping behaviors.
