Woven Textile Structure: Theory and Applications

Part 1 Fundamentals of woven fabric structure: The basics of woven fabric structure Geometrical modeling of woven fabric structure Using a geometric model to predict woven fabric properties Woven fabric properties after structural modifications. Part 2 Mechanics of woven fabric structure: Shrinkage in woven fabrics Yarn behaviour in woven fabrics Tensile behaviour of woven fabrics Buckling behaviour of woven fabrics Bending behaviour of woven fabrics Creasing in woven fabrics Shear behaviour of woven fabrics Compression behaviour of woven fabrics Friction and other aspects of the surface behaviour of woven fabrics. Part 3 Design engineering of woven fabrics: Textile product design methods Modeling for textile product design: Building predictive models for textile product design Modeling for woven fabric design. Part 4 Practical applications: Assessing the comfort of woven fabrics: fabric hand Assessing the comfort of woven fabrics: thermal properties Modeling woven fabric drape Modeling woven fabric behaviour during the making-up of garments Modeling three-dimensional (3-D) woven fabric structures Application of woven fabrics.
