Bending of Woven Fabrics

抄録

This article expands the theories announced by Livesey-Owen and Grosberg on the bending deformation of woven fabrics. A theoretical equation (11) has been derived. Various factors which determine the bending deformation properties can be arranged as shown in Fig. 4. The bending movement vs curvature curves of various woven fabrics have been measured. The effects of single filament denier, yarn density and various finishing treatments have also been examined. The bending behaviors of woven fabrics of cotton, viscose and other synthetic fibers have been compared. Data obtained from the experiments have been analyzed on the basis of the equation (1).
