- Abstract
Understanding the relaxation processes of knitted fabrics is of importance for knitting companies as well as in basic research. This article examines the new approach of relating the relaxation processes to the percentages of stitches, tucks, and floats in weft knitted structures, showing that especially the number of tucks strongly influences the relaxation behavior, and depicts the correlation of the relaxation processes with the cover factor and the stitch density.
