| Research Abstract |
Curling is a phenomenon that edges of a plain-knitted fabric are curled and it prevents efficient sewing of the fabric. As quantitative relationship between the magnitude of curling and properties of a yarn and/or knitting parameters is unclear, analysis of curling has been required. First, a knitted stitch in a plain-knitted fabric is modeled based on the differential geometry and the variational principle of statics. Then, curling is regarded as deformation of the stitch to reduce its potential energy. Next, curling of the whole fabric in 2D space is modeled considering the gravitational effect. Finally, it is shown that the difference of the curled shape of the fabric due to the difference of the rigidity of the fabric can be simulated. We will be able to estimate curling of a fabric from properties of a yarn and knitting parameters without actually knitting. It will lead to suppression of curling by controlling such properties/parameters.
