An Analytical Study of Initial Shear Behavior of Plain Woven Hybrid Fabrics

author

Abstract:

During recent years, the fabrics made from different yarns have been used for industrial purposes such as composite materials. Given the importance of the shear properties of these fabrics, a mechanical model based on the Grosberg and Park's Model for hybrid plain-woven fabrics is proposed. In this model, using the Energy method, the initial load-shear angle behavior of hybrid fabrics is calculated from the yarn mechanical properties and the fabric structure. To evaluate the proposed model, the experimental results for initial shear modulus obtained from pure and hybrid fabrics of basalt and nylon are compared with the theoretical model results. A comparison of the results shows that there is rather a good agreement between the proposed model predictions and experimental results.

Shear deformation analysis for woven fabrics

A new mechanical model is proposed in this paper to evaluate the shearing properties for woven fabrics during the initial slip region. Compared to the existing mechanical model for fabric shear, this model involves not only bending but also torsion of curved yarns. This model has the advantage of taking into consideration the yarn undulation in fabrics while keeping mathematical rigor. Moreover...

Simulate the Dynamic Draping Behavior of Woven and Knitted Fabrics

In this article a practical mass-spring system was developed to simulate the draping of woven and knitted fabrics. The material properties important to fabric drape, including aerial density, tensile, shear, and bending properties were measured using the Kawabata Evaluation System and the experimental data were incorporated into the mass-spring model to simulate the dynamic draping behavior of ...

Multifunctional graphene woven fabrics

Tailoring and assembling graphene into functional macrostructures with well-defined configuration are key for many promising applications. We report on a graphene-based woven fabric (GWF) prepared by interlacing two sets of graphene micron-ribbons where the ribbons pass each other essentially at right angles. By using a woven copper mesh as the template, the GWF grown from chemical vapour depos...
