Abstract
The estimation method of the damping properties for woven fabric composite materials has proposed. The proposed method has been applied to the plain woven fabric composites. Experiments have been conducted to evaluate the validity of the proposed method. It is recognized that the computational results have agreed with the experimental ones. -Next, it has evaluated the effect of angle of fiber bundle on material damping of plain woven fabric composites. The results show that the damping ratio is highest at angle of 45 degree.
