13 Effective Stiffness Properties of Textile-Re<strong>in</strong><strong>for</strong>ced <strong>Composites</strong> 279<br />

In order to improve the flexibility of the approach it has to be extended to more<br />

complex weft-knitted fabrics. Furthermore, the comb<strong>in</strong>ation of X-FEM and nonl<strong>in</strong>ear<br />

material behaviour will be adressed <strong>in</strong> the future.<br />
