Figure 31. Comparison <strong>of</strong> reinforcing orientation on the single <strong>fibre</strong> level and the<br />
composite level: Relationship between wood <strong>fibre</strong> stiffness and micr<strong>of</strong>ibril angle in the<br />
S2 layer (Page et al., 1977). Stiffness <strong>of</strong> PET-<strong>hemp</strong> yarn <strong>composites</strong> with the yarn axis<br />
inclined at different angles to the test direction (Madsen, 2004). The uncertainty is<br />
determined as standard deviation on the calculated E-modulus shown as bars.<br />
