Unit 1-Introduction PDF

This document discusses the hierarchical relationships between fibers, yarns, fabrics and garments and how their properties impact clothing performance. It explains that fibers are the smallest textile elements and that fiber properties like their molecular structure and surface characteristics largely determine the mechanical performance of garments.

Frence word Texere which means any material (fibres,
filaments, yarns) capable of being converted into fabrics
and fabric itself.

Hierarchical Relationships of Fiber, Yarn, Fabric
and Garment to the Performance of Clothing
Fibers are the fundamental and the smallest elements constituting textile materials. The
mechanical functional performance of garments are very much dependent on the fiber
mechanical and surface properties, which are largely determined by the constituting
polymeric molecules, internal structural features and surface morphological
characteristics of individual fibers. Scientific understanding and knowledge of the fiber
properties and modeling the mechanical behavior of fibers are essential for engineering
of clothing and textile products.
