Description
Summary:The main goal of paper presented is to introduce the SolidWorks environment to model the complex structure of knitted fabric. The geometrical model according to Leaf and Glaskin consists of some paths of unequivocal shape. The problem is described using the physical model and the set of mathematical equations. The structure is next discretized by means of finite element net and used to investigate the biaxial tensile elastic properties of cotton plain knitted fabrics. The obtained theoretical results are verified with a good convergence by means of tensile tests of knitted fabrics.
