The present paper reports a detailed study on heat and moisture vapour transmission characteristics of different types of multilayered fabric ensembles. Two sets of multilayered fabrics have been prepared. In first set, two types of carded web produced from acrylic and polyester fibres with five different areal densities in each fibre type have been used as middle layer. In second set, differen...

Knitwear fashion owns both the characters of knitted garments and fashion. Its unique fabrics, colors, shapes and technology, as well as casualness and comfortableness to wear, attract people’s hearts on beauty and it becomes popular rookie. This paper, based on the designer's point of view, through market research, focuses on the analysis of the characteristics of knitwear fashion, fabric choi...

This paper introduces the foundations of a new mechanical level of detail method dedicated to knitted fabric simulation. This method consists as a reduction of the knitted cloth parameters number, decreasing the configurations space dimension of the studied cloth. We stress the importance of the choice of an efficient parameters reduction function in order to make the method usable. The consequ...

Abstract 3D-knits are typically produced on flat knitting or special circular machines in a time-consuming process. The utilisation of sewing-like pattern opens up the potential 10–50 times faster production common large as compared to conventional machines. Since not designed for this technology, limitations and stability process conditions have been rarely studied. To further proof feasibilit...
