Abstract

A general theoretical approach is presented for a geometrical model of square plain woven fabric, allowing the threads to be compressed to an elliptical cross section provided that their circumference is constant. The limitation of the assumed model i.e. jamming condition represented by weave angle was computed and the relation between wrap angle and weave angle was also obtained for different values of flattening factor. Mathematical relations between cover {actor, crimp percentage, relative fabric weight and weave angle were then possible to be computed at different values of flattening factor.
