| Abstract: | An
objective approach to assess the handle of various knitted fabrics has been
made by analyzing the force-displacement curves. In comparison to the
conventional pulling-through method, a rounded sample is pulled through a hole
and from the space between two horizontal plates and the required pulling force
is measured with respect to the displacement of specimen, recorded as a
force-displacement curve. The results of the correlation test show that the
features of the pulling-through curves associate with all mechanical and
surface properties, except fabric thickness and compression energy. For this reason, a combination
of the features selected from pulling-through curve and the parameters, which
reflect the compression properties and thickness
of all kinds of fabrics, is recommended |
