cotton/polyester knitted fabrics as a major production of textile industry was treated with titanium dioxide nanosized particles. the treated fabric with nanosized tio2 became whiter with a good self-cleaning property. also the discoloration of reactive black 5 dye was studied and reported. the stabilization of tio2 on cotton/polyester knitted fabrics by citric acid (ca) with sodium hypophospha...

Curling of knitted fabrics edges is one of the complicated problems of these structures. Therefore, study and measurement of curling in knitted fabrics is important. In this study, it is tried to model the three-dimensional wale wise curl of the fabric using finite element modelling. In this model the tensions in different parts of a knitted loop due to bending and torsional forces in knitting ...

This paper presents a study conducted on the thermo-mechanical properties of knitted structures, the methods of manufacture, effect of contact pressure at the structural binding points, on the degree of heating. The test results also present the level of heating produced as a function of the separation between the supply terminals. The study further investigates the rate of heating and cooling ...

This article presents an experimental investigation carried out to understand the mechanical behavior of composite materials made of 3D stitched woven-knitted basalt fabrics. The innovative preforms used consist of two outer layers of a plain woven fabric combined with two inner layers of weft-knitted fabrics. The weft-knitted fabrics selected for the study were varied plain knit, 1 × 1 rib, Mi...

in this study, the longitudinal shrinkage behavior of knitted fabrics during drying has been studied. in this context, a model is presented to predict the longitudinal shrinkage of plain knitted fabric during drying process. in order to model the shrinkage behavior, a 1dof model consists of a mass, a linear spring and a linear damper have been used. in presented model the time-varying mass is c...

To realize 3-D simulation of warp-knitted fabrics, this paper proposes a 3-D loop modeling method based on Cardinal spline and recursive rotation frame method. Fabric structure and loop geometry are studied to form a visible lapping detection model and loop geometrical key points obtained according to chain links and yarn arrangements. In this paper, eight points are set for stitched loop and t...

To simulate a warp-knitted product with specific shape, mesh-based model for modeling and simulation is proposed. The three-dimensional geometry of the final fabric represented as set polygons, each them containing information about 3D orientation yarns in warp knitted structure. Using spatial mapping, stitch coordinates are transformed from flat mesh to rendering accomplished. method provides ...

Circular knitting machine makes the fabric with more than two knitting tools. Variation of yarn tension between different knitting tools causes different loop length of stitches duration knitting process. In this research, a new intelligent method is applied to control loop length of stitches in various tools based on ideal shape of stitches and real angle of stitches direction while different ...

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 ...
