Abstract

In this paper an attempt has been made to modify the construction of one style of wool/terylene fabrics which are used to make suit clothes in order to improve its form. This modification could be achieved to determine the optimum studied factors such as wool percent in weft yarns, weft yarn linear density, pick density, the diameter of arm, the ratio of arm diameter to the sleeve diameter, number of creasing (crushing) cycles, creasing (crushing) time and relaxation time. The investigated geometrical properties that correlated with the form of suit cloth are amplitude of wave, Wave length and number of waves per unit length. Mathematical models describing the form of clothes are presented in a form can be easily predicted. In addition, the optimum factors affecting the formability could be determined to improve the appearance of cloths.
