Fibers in composites are typically arranged in a specific orientation to optimize the material's strength and stiffness. Common arrangements include unidirectional, woven, and chopped fibers, each offering different mechanical properties. The orientation and distribution of fibers play a crucial role in determining the overall performance of the composite material.
molecules are arranged in good order along the fibers
1. To bind the fibers together so that the applied stress is distributed among the fibers 2. To protect the surface of the fibers from being damaged 3. To separate the fibers and inhibit crack propagation
Muscle fibers can be arranged into two basic structural patterns, fusiform and pinnate. Most human muscles are fusiform, with the fibers largely arranged parallel along the muscle's longitudinal axis. In many of the larger muscles the fibers are inserted obliquely into the tendon, and this arrangement resembles a feather. The fibers in a pinnate (feather) muscle are shorter than those of a fusiform muscle. The arrangement of pinnate muscle fibers can be single or double, as in muscles of the forearm, or multipinnate, as in the gluteus maximus or deltoid.
Fiberglass itself is non-flammable, as it is composed of glass fibers resistant to combustion. However, the resin used to bind the fibers together in fiberglass composites can be flammable. It is important to check the fire rating of specific fiberglass products or materials.

Engineered cementicious composites are also known as bendable concrete. Just like concrete this substance is easily moldable and is reinforced with short random fibers.

Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) consist of ceramic fibers embedded in a ceramic matrix, providing high temperature resistance and mechanical strength. Typically, they include materials like silicon carbide or alumina fibers reinforced in a ceramic material. In contrast, Polymer Matrix Composites (PMCs) feature polymer resins, such as epoxy or polyester, as the matrix, with reinforcing materials often consisting of glass, carbon, or aramid fibers. PMCs are known for their lightweight characteristics and versatility, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.

Composites are made from two constituent materials. The two materials have different chemical and physical characteristics from one another, and the composites they form have different characteristics from both of them.

Muscle fibers are grouped into fascicles, these fascicles form a muscle. The fascicles are arranged in 3 basic patterns. Parallel fascicles are arranged length wise in a parallel form. Circular fascicles are arranged in rings in a concentric pattern. Pennate fascicles are arranged in a feather pattern, with muscles arranged like a feather attached to a tendon along its length.
