Analysis of the Draping Behaviour of Multi-Layer Textiles using Digital Image Processing

Abstract


The draping behaviour of woven fabrics in moulds is essential for the production of textile composites that
should fulfil specific aesthetic and performance requirements. This study focuses on the draping behaviour of
multiple layers of natural jute and glass fibre woven fabrics and their hybrid combinations. Results show that it
is not only the number of layers that plays a vital role in determining the overall draping behaviour of multi layer
reinforcements, but also the order in which the setup is prepared. Image processing techniques using Matlab
were performed to describe the draping behaviour of single, double and triple layer setups.
