Mechanics of Woven Fabrics: Part II: Experimental Study of Weavability Limit of Yams with Thickness Variation

A wide range of tightly woven fabrics made from regular thickness warp ends and filling yams with pulse train irregularities was produced to test the validity of the theoretical weavability limit relationships developed in Part I of this study. The in vestigation includes periodic and random thickne...

Description
Summary:A wide range of tightly woven fabrics made from regular thickness warp ends and filling yams with pulse train irregularities was produced to test the validity of the theoretical weavability limit relationships developed in Part I of this study. The in vestigation includes periodic and random thickness variation filling yarns. The results show that the agreement between the theoretical and loom maximum fabric cover factors is fairly good up to eight-harness weaves.
