In the present work the reflection behavior and the color appearance of acrylic yarns, as pile yarns used in carpet and pilled fabrics, are considered along their lengths as well as their cross- sections. Differences between longitudinal and cross-sectional reflection behaviors of yarns are measured in different yarn densities and hues and explained by the geometric model. The results of experi...
