...Nada Hainsˇ; Vera Frisˇcˇic´; Dubravka Gordosˇ The objective of the study was to test the electrostatic properties of textiles used for protective clothing worn in flammable and potentially explosive environment. The protective clothing is intended for multi‐use and, apart from wear and stretching...

...Željko Šomodi; Anica Hursa; Dubravko Rogale A non‐linear numerical simulation of a standard procedure for textile flexibility testing is performed using discretised beam bending model. Geometric non‐linearity due to large deflections is traced using incremental method. Linear moment‐curvature...

...F. Mete; D.W. Lloyd Computational elastica theory is used to model a simple test for the bending properties of fabrics. This test, entitled the “CLOAK” test, was designed to offer practical experimental advantages over the established cantilever bending, of bending length, test. Computational...
