| Abstract: | Modifications have been made to the simple conventional method of
determining low- stress mechanical properties of fabrics to make it applicable
for finished silk fabrics. The bending
rigidity of the fabrics has been obtained from the tensile stress-strain curves
and shear rigidity by bias extension.
The correlation between the parameters obtained by the modified method
and that obtained by the Kawabata evaluation test method is found to be good
for a series of finished silk fabrics |
