Creation of a Geometrical Model for Milano Rib FabricDepartment of Textile Engineering, Dokuz Eylül University, Izmir, Turkey
Department of Textile Engineering, Dokuz Eylül University, Izmir, Turkey, arif.kurbak{at}deu.edu.tr A geometrical model for milano rib fabric at a normal tightness condition, based on Kurbak's (1998) plain-knitted loop model, was created. The model showed that small yarn compressions at the interlocking points and 50% yarn swellings away from the interlocking points might have occurred in the experimental sample used for comparison. Drawing of the model using the 3DS MAX computer graphic program gave a similar shape to that obtained experimentally with the real fabrics.
