Quilting Space: Experimental Form-Finding with Knitted Fabrics

نویسندگان

چکیده

This paper outlines an ongoing project exploring the potential for knitted textiles to create architectural forms. The is inspired by processes of engineer Heinz Isler who used as a form-finding medium and subsequently set those forms into permanent structures, using knowledge acquired during that process large scale maquettes. examines how this approach could be explored textile design route incorporating both technical aesthetic act. first part uses collaborative workshop transform tubular-knitted fabric small sculptural models. These are then recontextualised with focus on photographic output present outcomes Second, thermoplastic polyurethane yarn (TPUY) structures exploit innate potentials fabrics when heating methods find created electronic Stoll knitting machinery rely tacit knit capitalise adaptability process. reduces need seams or other areas may cause weakness allows creation flat three-dimensional shapes. Using various techniques, concentrations TPUY conventional fibres, proposes exciting future application in designing architecture, engineering sculpture. Finally, discussion moves further research teaching scenarios.

Investigation of Air Permeability of Cotton & Modal Knitted Fabrics

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the porosity / compactness of the knitted structures made from cotton and modal yarns and to evaluate the air permeability property for sportswear. In the experimental section, cotton and modal yarns spun in different counts ( Ne 30, Ne 40 ) with the same twist coefficient of αe = 3.53 and 3.3 respectively were knitted as single jersey fabrics in the s...

Dimensional parameters of single jersey cotton knitted fabrics

The problem of unpredictable shrinkage of cotton knitted fabrics and garments faced by the industry has been investigated by knitting single jersey cotton fabrics using the similar yarn and knitting parameters as used in the industry and finishing them. Through linear regression analysis, the variable factors, which affect the shrinkage and should be included in the domain of the quality contro...

Predicting Bursting Strength of Plain Knitted Fabrics using ANN

In this study, the effects of yarn parameters, on the bursting strength of the plain knitted fabrics were examined with the help of artificial neural networks. In order to obtain yarns having different properties such as tenacity, elongation, unevenness, the yarns were produced from six different types of cotton. In addition to cotton type, yarns were produced in four different counts having th...

The Art of Knitted Fabrics, Realistic & Physically Based Modelling Of Knitted Patterns

In this paper we will present a system to use three dimensional computer graphics in garment design. This system is capable to visualize the “real”, i.e. the physically correct, appearance of a knitted fabric. A fast visualization of a physically correct micro-structure garment is of crucial importance in textile industry, since it enables fast and less expensive product development. This syste...

Investigation on Ecological Parameters of Dyeing Organic Cotton Knitted Fabrics

In this study, the ecological parameters of the effluent obtained from dyeing of scoured and mercerised organic cotton single jersey fabrics with textile reactive dyes adopting exhaust dyeing method was investigated. The dyes used include regular (Navacron H and FN) reactive dyes and low impact (Remazol and Levafix) reactive dyes along with inorganic salt (sodium sulphate) and biosalt (trisodiu...
