...Ezzatollah Haghighat; Seyed Mohammad Etrati; Saeed Shaikhzadeh Najar Purpose – This paper aims to predict the needle penetration force (NPF) in denim fabrics using the artificial neural network (ANN) and multiple linear regression (MLR) models based on the effects of various sewing parameters...

...Stepan V. Lomov Proposes an algorithm for the computation of maximum needle penetration force; it introduces the direct dependence of penetration force on fabric structural parameters and warp and weft geometrical and mechanical properties. Uses the approach to the simulation of local deformation...
