“…EMT reflects fabric extensibility, a measure of fabric ability to be stretched under a tensile load. The larger the EMT, the more extensible is the fabric (Chan et al, 2006). A proper amount of extensibility is desirable, while both excessive and insufficient extensibility will cause problems for the production.…”

Through-thickness permeability modelling of woven fabric under out-of-plane deformation

When a woven fabric is subject to a normal uniform loading, its properties such as tightness and through-thickness permeability are both altered, which relates to the fabric out-of-plane deformation (OPD) and dynamic permeability (DP). In this article, fabric OPD is analytically modelled through an energy minimization method, and corresponding fabric DP is established as the function of loading and fabric deformed structure. The total model shows the permeability a decrease for tight fabric and an increase for loose fabric when the uniform loading increases. This is verified experimentally by fabric OPD, static and dynamic permeabilities. Experimental tests for both permeabilities showed good agreement with the corresponding predictions, indicating the fact that tight fabric becomes denser and loose fabric gets more porous during OPD. A sensitivity study showed that an increase of fabric Young's modulus or a decrease of fabric test radius both lead to an increase of DP for tight fabric and opposite for loose fabric. The critical fabric porosity and thickness were found for inflection of fabric DP trend during the OPD, which contributes to the optimum design of interlacing structure applied to protective textiles and composites.

“…Extensive scientific studies of surface friction property evaluation methods of fabrics, together with the fabric handle evaluation methods, were carried out [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] , and Kawabata Evaluation System (KES) is the first advanced and unique solution for testing of fabric mechanical properties [2,3] , including surface friction property. KES system includes four instruments: Tensile and Shearing Tester, Pure Bending Tester, Surface Tester and Compression tester.…”

Measurement system for characterizing surface friction properties of textile materials

et al. 2013

A new test method and a measurement system were proposed, which can be used to characterize the surface friction properties of textile materials such as fabrics. The measurement system simulates the dynamic friction contacts between the skin and fabrics under a variety of test conditions in a mechanical measuring device with measuring head and a slider, and can measure both the static and dynamic coefficient of friction of textile materials automatically. A series of indices were defined to characterize the friction performance of the textile materials. The measurement principle, the evaluation method, the experiments and the test results were introduced. The test results show that there are significant differences in the surface friction properties among the fabrics to all indices.
