Does anyone have successful experinece analyzing woven fabric in rubber in a rolling application. The rubber part is easy but fabric is another animal. Any thoughts?
 
Maybe your software has an element that would typically be used for modeling concrete/rebar structures that supports the material models you need for your analysis. In your case the rubber would be analagous to concrete and the fiber to the rebar. Just a thought. Or you could model them explicitly.
