The evaluation of fused knitted systems stability

摘要

The aim of the presented research is to apply the method of punch deformation for the simulation of textile systems behaviour in serve conditions and on the basis of it create original method and find new criteria for shape stability evaluation. The research was done with the kelp of three devices of punch loading originally created at Kaunas University of Technology (Lithuania), which were attached to the standard tensile testing machine. Creep tests were performed by a special device, clamping radius of which was R = 56.5mm. Creep process was controlled up to the stabilisation of shells height, i.e. after t = 48 h. Tests were carried out in wet and dry states of the specimen. Two different types of textile systems (I+K and K+I) composed of two layers were investigated (where K - outer material; I - interlining).
