Behavior of Sample Pleated Strips of Wool Fabric in an Extensometer
1960
Holdaway, H.W.
The simple theoretical model previously considered [1] was inadequate in some respects to provide a complete account of the observed elasto-mechanical behavior of a pleat when extended. Factors now included are the radius of curvature at the pleat and the variation in fabric stiffness as a function of tension. The use of additional parameters to take account of these effects permits a very good description of the ob served behavior. Values of "initial pleat angle" and "initial fabric stiffness" can be determined from experimental results of longitudinal extension and lateral deflection as a function of load.
