This research investigates the effect of weave design and fabric weft density on the bagging behavior of cotton woven fabric interpreted in terms of fabric mechanical properties using FAST system. The results of this research show that the shear rigidity and formability significantly increased with weft density, whereas most fabric bagging parameters including bagging fatigue, resistance, hysteresis, and residual bagging hysteresis decreased accordingly. However, the weft density has no significant influence on residual bagging height. Moreover, the result of this work revealed that cotton fabric with a twill 2/2 structure exhibited the lowest shear rigidity and the highest formability which, in turn, led to the highest bagging parameters including bagging fatigue, resistance, hysteresis and residual bagging hysteresis, and the lowest residual bagging height among plain, twill 3/1, and hopsack weave designs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
