Opis

Textile fabrics of various structures are being increasingly used by engineers of different disciplines. This junior/senior undergraduate-level textbook focuses on the diverse technical principles involved at each stage of the formation of different types of fabrics. The book covers topics such as winding, warping, sizing, woven fabric construction, weaving, weft knitting, warp knitting, braiding, nonwovens, triaxial, multiaxial, and 3-D fabrics. A solutions manual is also available upon qualifying course adoption.
