Abstract
    In this work, the effect of the correction fibers direction on the efficiency of repairing damaged composite plates was highlighted. The composite plates studied in this work consist of eight layers of graphite/epoxy, while the patch used in this repair consists of four layers of the same type. The results obtained in this work, whether with regard to the experimental or analytical side, showed that the fibers orientation affects the repair efficiency, so the closer the angle of fibers inclination is to the tensile strength direction, the performance of the composite material is ideal. Hence, we conclude that the composite materials with longitudinal fibers (Parallel to tensile strength) is the most powerful and efficient material in performance.
