Abstract

Abstract : Purpose: – The purpose of this paper is to develop a 3D geometric model of three-pick terry fabric considering the actual design and structural features of the finished terry fabric. Design/methodology/approach: – The model has been developed using SolidWorks CAD system and the output file can be easily simulated in the ANSYS. Dimensions are acquired from the actual terry fabric measurement. Findings: – A 3D computational model – to be used for understanding the behaviour of terry fabric during actual use through the simulation in ANSYS. Practical implications: – Provides the way to study the yarn and fabric structure behaviour during use through simulation. Originality/value: – The research resulted a 3D geometrical model of very complex three-pick terry fabric for very first time for further analysis of terry fabric behaviour during use.
