Comparative Study on the Frictional Sound Properties of Woven Fabrics

A Study on Frictional Characteristics of Woven Fabrics

We have examined the fabric-to-metal surface and fabric-to-fabric frictional characteristics (in both warp and weft directions) of a series of fabrics containing 100% polyester, 100% viscose, and P/C & P/V blends with different blend proportions. It has been observed that the normal load and the frictional force follow a logarithmic relationship for all the fabrics. The nature of fabric frictio...

Design of a New Instrument for Measuring Frictional Properties of Woven Fabrics

Friction measurement is one of important and interesting problems in the study of handle properties of fabrics. Different methods have been developed for measuring friction, such as sliding, KES and cyclic testing method. In this research, considering the possibilities of varying conditions in measuring friction, a new instrument by which the bottom surface of fabric can be moved and the top sl...

Evaluation of the Shearing Properties of Woven Fabrics: Rated Force

This paper introduces a very simple way to evaluate low stress shearing properties of woven fabrics with the advantages of simplicity and easy accessibility. A 200-gram load is applied on small portion of the sample instead of applying the load overall width of the fabric. As a result, buckling of the fabric will happen and the loading-unloading curve will show the behavior of the fabric during...

Shearing Properties of the Skewed Woven Fabrics (RESEARCH NOTE)

Investigations on the Reinforcement of Mechanical Properties of Gypsum Composites Containing E-glass Woven Fabrics

Glass fiber reinforced gypsum composites are new building materials that have been used in covering interior walls. Reinforcement by means of woven fabrics as a three dimensional material is an alternative to the use of short fibers. The application of appropriate fabrics can improve mechanical properties of gypsum composites. The aim of this research article is to investigate the effect of the...
