Hybrid Finite Element Model for Predicting the Interface Pressure of Medical Compression Stockings. [PDF]

Int J Numer Method Biomed Eng
The proposed hybrid finite element model for predicting the interface pressure of medical compression stockings considers local fabric architecture and individual mechanical contributions of yarn systems. FE simulations on ankle and calf zones reproduce the therapeutic pressure gradient and match PicoPress sensor data within 10%–20% of error and ...

Multifunctional polymer-based composite materials with weft-knitted carbon fibrous fillers [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
The production technology of reinforcement filler for new multifunctional polymer based composites with weft-knitted structure had been proposed. In such reinforcement filler high-strength carbon fibers (CFs) from PAN precursors (wefts) were laid in a ...

3D Knitted Preforms Using Large Circular Weft Knitting Machines [PDF]

Applied Composite Materials, 2021
Abstract3D-knits are typically produced on flat knitting or special circular knitting machines in a time-consuming process. The utilisation of a sewing-like pattern opens up the potential of a 10–50 times faster production on common large circular knitting machines as compared to conventional flat knitting machines. Since common large circular knitting

Knitting Tension During Weft-Knitting

Journal of the Textile Machinery Society of Japan, 1969
Knitting tension during weft-knitting is experimentally investigated with the aid of a model apparatus and a circular knitting machine. Although the knitting velocity in our experiment using the circular knitting machine was much lower than the ordinary velocity, it is possible to estimate real knitting tension from the results given in this article ...

Development of Low Hysteresis, Linear Weft-Knitted Strain Sensors for Smart Textile Applications

Sensors, 2022
In recent years, knitted strain sensors have been developed that aim to achieve reliable sensing and high wearability, but they are associated with difficulties due to high hysteresis and low gauge factor (GF) values.

The Effect of Tuck Stitch on the Properties of Weft Knitted Fabric

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2022
The fabric structure is the fundamental unit that controls all properties of weft knitted fabrics. This paper studies the effect of three weft knitted structures; single jersey, rib 1 and 1, and cardigan on various properties.
