We present a new procedural method for photorealistic rendering of woven fabric material. The goal of our research is to provide a new procedural method that renders photorealistic woven fabric without any measured data. The proposed method models the reflectance properties of woven fabric with alternating anisotropy and yarn-level surface normal manipulation. The experimental results show the ...

In this work, the quality of four plain single jersey weft-knitted fabrics (produced from same flax yarn) having different structural characteristics (stitch density, weight, and thickness) before after pilling, was examined. The knitted evaluated in terms their compression (compressibility, thickness loss, compressive resilience), comfort (air permeability water retention), strength (bursting ...

In this study, polyester matrix composites reinforced by 1x1, 2x2, half- and full-cardigan rib pattern weft-knitted fabrics from glass glass/aramid hybrid yarns were produced. Tensile, flexural impact tests applied to the composites. The 2x2 composite showed highest thickness density. hybridization of yarn with aramid increased thickness, while it decreased density tensile modulus strength. Yar...

This paper presents an experimental study of the compression behavior of a typical warp-knitted spacer fabric which is specially developed as a cushioning material for human body protection. The fabric has a highly heterogeneous and discontinuous structure and exhibits a complicated compression behavior. Different test boundary conditions and sample sizes were first adopted to conduct compressi...

The goal of our research works is to build a software for fabric modeling. Our research team wants to simulate any fabric deformations due to mechanic stresses. This paper deals with our solutions to speed up calculus convergence of fabric model simulation. These solutions are based on clever propagation algorithm, multi sampling and displacement prediction. Into bibliography, there is several ...

This paper presents a study of the sensing properties exhibited by textile-based knitted strain sensors. Knitted sensors were manufactured using flat-bed knitting technology, and electro-mechanical tests were subsequently performed on the specimens using a tensile testing machine to apply strain whilst the sensor was incorporated into a Wheatstone bridge arrangement to allow electrical monitori...

in this study, the longitudinal shrinkage behavior of knitted fabrics during drying has been studied. in this context, a model is presented to predict the longitudinal shrinkage of plain knitted fabric during drying process. in order to model the shrinkage behavior, a 1dof model consists of a mass, a linear spring and a linear damper have been used. in presented model the time-varying mass is c...
