A method of combining 1-d and 2-d structural finite elements to capture the fundamental
mechanical properties of engineering fabrics subject to finite strains is introduced. A …

The present study relates to form a self-assembled coating on cotton fabric using layer-by-
layer (LBL) technique to impart antimicrobial property. Poly (styrenesulfonate)(PSS) and …

Woven cotton fabrics were treated with a polyurethane modified aminosilicone fluid
commonly used as a fabric softener. The aminoethylaminopropyl polydimethylsiloxane was …

Manufacturing bio-based and biodegradable materials for electronic applications is a swiftly
growing field today. This approach can effectively tackle the future electronic waste …

The drapability of a textile composite reinforcement is its capability to be formed on a double
curved shape without wrinkling. This is an important property of a textile reinforcement when …

Recently, as state‐of‐the‐art displays, wearable electronic devices and free‐form displays
have begun to attract attention to the point that much research on textile‐based displays has …

A stress resultant shell approach is proposed to simulate the draping of textile composite
reinforcements with continuous fibers. This approach naturally makes it possible to take into …

The cantilever bending test is one of the simplest and most widely used methods to estimate
the bending stiffness of textile materials. A nonlinear moment–curvature relationship can be …
