Knitted fabrics are widely used by the underwear apparel industry due to their good elasticity. Modeling the mechanical behavior of knitted fabrics using Kelvin model is one of the discussed subjects in the textile industry. The purpose of this study is to investigate the accuracy of a nonlinear Kelvin model for determining the drying behavior of knitted fabrics. To fulfill this aim, genetic al...

Strain-rate-based damping is investigated in the strong form of intrinsic equations three-dimensional geometrically exact beams. Kelvin–Voigt damping, often limited literature to linear or two-dimensional beam models, generalized case, including rigid-body motions. The result an elegant infinite-dimensional description beams that facilitates theoretical analysis and sets baseline for any chosen...
