Locally anisotropic structures induced by curvilinear fibers are designed optimally to improve in-plane strength of fibrous composites.Natural compounds have local anisotropic properties which are distributed optimally throughout the compound to perform more effectively than homogenously anisotropic materials.It may then be hypothesized that if local anisotropy can be exploited in structural design, it would be possible to design more effective engineering structures.To realize local anisotropy with curvilinear fibers, fiber reinforced composites would be highly appropriate, especially with an innovative method that has recently been developed to produce composites with curvilinear fibers.
