“…The dynamometer lower jaw measures the resistance F (friction force) of the weight to sliding on the fabric-covered plate. The weight can also be wrapped in fabric in order to assess friction between two fabric surfaces (Ajayi, 1992a(Ajayi, , 1992bCarrera-Gallissà et al, 2017) (Figure 1). The operating conditions of the sliding test were as follows:…”

“…Friction also influences fabric touch. This property not only provides an objective measure of fabric quality but also is a key factor for evaluating hand (Kawabata, 1980;Ajayi,1992b;Ajayi, 2008;Carrera-Gallissà et al, 2017). Because it restricts the number of layers that can be stacked in cutting fabric, friction also affects drapeability (Apurba et al, 2005).…”

The aim of this study was to identify the latent structure and potential relationships between two sets of frictions measurements of warp-and-weft fabrics made with the sliding method and the Kawabata system (KES FB-4 method). First, linear relationships between all pairs of friction-related variables for the two methods were assessed and found to be weak and statistically not significant in most cases. Second, linear regression was applied to the variables previously exhibiting significant correlation only but the variables were found not to be useful for developing accurate predictive models. Third, multiple linear regression between a Kawabata variable and various parameters of the sliding method was used to construct a model that proved inaccurate owing to multicollinearity in the regressors; also, the method only allowed a single dependent variable to be related. This was not the case with canonical correlation, which allowed two sets of variables to be correlated through multivariate analysis. This technique revealed a significant relationship between the two sets of friction-related variables.

“…The difference in coefficient of friction values can also be explained based on the phenomenon of coefficient of friction of textile materials. The coefficient of friction is constant for many hard materials but not for fabrics [16]. In the case of textile materials, the frictional forces usually depend on the geometric area of contact.…”

“…In the case of seersucker woven fabrics, the geometric area of contact is different for both phases of the fabric, namely, flat and puckered. According to the literature, the frictional behavior of easily deformed materials such as fabrics, which are essentially viscoelastic, is better expressed by the following nonlinear relation [16,17]: where F is the frictional force, N is the normal force, C is the coeffi cient of contact, and n is the friction index.…”

The surface characteristics of fabrics are important from the point of view of the sensorial comfort of clothing users. Surface friction and surface roughness are the most important surface parameters of fabrics. These parameters can be measured using different methods, the most important and well-accepted method being that using the Kawabata evaluation system (KES)-FB4 testing instrument. In this work, the surface roughness and surface friction of the seersucker woven fabric have been determined using the KES-FB4. However, the measurement procedure needs modification. On the basis of the results, the influence of the repeat of the seersucker effect and the linear density of the weft yarn on the surface parameters has been determined.
