An online fabric database to link fabric drape and end-use properties

ii Acknowledgements I would first like to thank my major professor, Dr. Jonathan Yan Chen, for his guidance, support and more importantly for his patience. I also would like to express my sincere appreciation to Dr. Jenna Tedrick Kuttruff for her continued motivation and friendship. Valuable insights and constructive critiques of my committee members, Dr. Jianhua Chen, and Dr. Jacquelene Robeck are appreciated. I also thank to my friend Gillian David Sims for his support during image recording, and to Yvonne Marquette for her assistance with sample preparation process. Finally, I would like to thank my parents and my brother for their help and encouragement during my study. Also, a very special thank you is extended to my family in
