The paper presents the prerequisites of involving of topological elements and graph theory as an instrument of mathematical formalization of woven structures and technology of textile fabrics. Present research is based on analysis and comparison of the main concepts and conditions of textile technology and graph theory.
The present paper shows the mathematical approach of formalization of textile fabrics, based on concepts and elements of graph theory and the structural analysis of woven structures and possibility of numerical evaluation of interlacing factor of warp and weft threads in woven structures through the weight of a structural graph vertex. Research observes quantitative aspect of structural evaluation of threads topology in fabric focusing in graph theory, in order to present an application productivity of this theory to solve the technological tasks.
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.
