Predicting the Properties of Technical Textiles Through Digital Modelling

In recent years, the research community has increased its efforts towards predicting the properties of textile products through computer simulation. The central objective is to propose software tools that supply early information on the properties of a textile, say its filtering performance or suitability to architectural applications, prior to testing. Effects of the textile structure and manufacturing parameters could be investigated earlier in the design process, in a way similar to routine analyses of structures made of metals or plastics.

Textile Constructions

The Haj Terminal, erected in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in the 1970s, is the largest fabric structure in the Word.This airport, built to service pilgrims making their way to Mecca, covers more than 100 acres and is made of over 500 million square feet of woven glass fiber coated with a fluorocarbone resin. The solar pane at the entrance of the German chancellor’s office, the roof of the Millenium Dome in London and the LaVerne College’s sports stadium, in California, are other architectural structures among thousands more throughout the world that show the huge growth potential of textile constructions.

Value-Added Nonwovens

Value-Added Nonwovens Today, nonwovens are an important part of a multitude of applications, even though most people don’t realize it. In fact, in durable applications, unlike other fabrics, nonwovens rarely combine cosmetic features with their technical performances and, in this respect, they often remain invisible to the average person. Companies are constantly making efforts to make single use (disposable) products more attractive and more functional to reach high volume markets. To this end, they are relying a great deal on new technologies (microfibres, spunbound, hybrid processes, etc.).
