Abstract: A woven article and a method for detecting a stress distribution of the woven article under stress are provided. The woven article includes a woven body and a plurality of metallic yarns connected to the woven body and spaced apart from each other. The woven body defines more than one direction thereon. The metallic yarns each extend in the direction. A resistance sensor is connected with each of the metallic yarns. A stress is exerted on the woven body, and the resistance sensor detects a resistance value generated by the metallic yarns on the woven body. According to the resistance value detected by the resistance sensor, a stress distribution of the woven body under stress can be obtained.
