<p>This disclosure describes fabric and a method for making fabric, for use in a flexible pressure vessel or other fabric structures, which has an unbalanced woven construction and has a balanced or nearly balanced modulus of elasticity for the end-use conditions of this fabric. Unbalanced woven fabrics that do not have balanced properties produce unequal stretching and are susceptible to premature failure. The present invention of unbalanced woven fabric construction with balanced mechanical properties such as modulus of elasticity can be used to optimize fabric strength, mass, volume, and performance characteristics and also reduce manufacturing costs for various fabric structure applications. Balanced mechanical properties for the fabric structure are achieved by altering the force of the fabric by increasing or decreasing the number of yarns in a particular direction of the fabric, by changing the strain during stretch of the fabric, or by alternative weaves of the fabric.</p> |
