The linear elastic biaxial response of plain-woven meshes

Castigliano's second theorem is applied to determine the linear elastic constitutive response of plain-weave meshes under biaxial tension and bending. In-plane force-deflection relations are derived through examining a representative element of the mesh. The analysis includes the contributions of tension, bending, and transverse shear to the complementary energy.
