Method for characterizing a fibrous texture

Abstract

Method for characterizing a fiber texture A method for characterizing a fiber texture (10) having a three-dimensional or multi-layer weave following a weave pattern determined on a plurality of warp planes and on a plurality of weft planes comprises calculating an infiltrability score of the fiber texture corresponding to the ratio between a number of actual crossing points (P1, P2) between warp threads of the warp thread layer present on an external surface of the fiber texture and weft threads of weft thread layers and a maximum number of theoretical crossing points on the external surface of the fiber texture, each actual crossing point (P1, P2) corresponding to a change in relative position in the direction of the thickness of the fiber texture of a warp thread with respect to a weft thread between two successive warp planes.
