3D finite element (FE) analysis was conducted to investigate the mechanical behaviour of a typical 3D spacer fabric structure under compression in terms of its structural feature and mechanical properties of its components.
Crucial textile components for the design and development of protective clothing include fiber species, fabric structure and physical/chemical finish applied in the fabrication process.
Another fabric structure using tension cables is the air-supported membrane.
Humor intrudes courtesy of Ligia Bouton's social-experiment-cum-video artwork "Join" (2004), in which we see the artist wearing a white fabric structure that attaches her body to those of other women.
Last summer, Balfour Beatty was awarded the contract to install a £41m cantilevered roof that will replace the existing fabric structure that covered just two thirds of the seats.
The original design, fabric, structure and purpose of a major part of the building will be destroyed, rendering the landmark a dysfunctional shell, and a shadow of its former self.
Designed by the New York firm Diller Scofidio & Renfro, the translucent fabric structure, which would be installed twice a year, for May and October, and be packed away in storage the rest of the time, would transform one of the most somber buildings on the mall into a luminous pop landmark.
The surface features of fabric have a great influence on warm-cool feeling than fabric structure.
In long shed area, the warp yarns in the fabric structure became loose.
This implies a change in the composition of the yarns and fabric structure.
Fabric structure plays a critical role for predicting the fabric properties.
