AN EXPLICIT CALCULATION OF RELATIVE SURFACE DEFORMATION DURING BURSTING TEST OF FABRICS

Abstract

A mathematical approach to the setting of a new model of knitted and other loose textile surfaces deformation during a ball-bursting test is presented. The dependence of ball traverse length is defined in an implicit manner by an exact system of equations. A procedure for the development of the corresponding explicit dependence has also been proposed. The new model is proved by experimental results as correct and applicable in a simple way to all possible values of the ball traverse length in ball bursting tests.
