The studies have been carried out using 15 fabric samples (linen, cotton, polyester-cotton blend, denim and corduroy) of varying areal density for investigating fabric shear properties at different angles. It is observed that there is a high correlation between the drape and the shear properties of the fabric at different shear angles.

Abstract


The studies have been carried out using 15 fabric samples (linen, cotton, polyester-cotton blend, denim and corduroy) of varying areal density for investigating fabric shear properties at different angles. It is observed that there is a high correlation between the drape and the shear properties of the fabric at different shear angles.
