Inhaltsangabe

Advances in 3D Textiles presents the most recent advances in the production of three-dimensional fibrous structures and how their use has resulted in the creation of novel fabrics and applications. The text covers a wide range of fabric types, including their structures, properties, and uses in the textiles industry.

Beginning with the various types of woven three-dimensional fabrics, the text then examines 3-D knitted, braided, and non-woven textiles, and the main applications and uses of three-dimensional textiles.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr Xiaogang Chen obtained his PhD in Textile Engineering from the University of Leeds in 1991. He is currently a reader in technical textiles in the School of Materials, The University of Manchester. In the field of modelling, he worked on mathematical models leading to the creation of CAD software for 2D and 3D woven fabrics. He also researched into geometric and mechanical modelling of textiles for engineering technical textiles. He has applied his modelling approach into the prediction of textile behaviour in energy absorption, fluid filtration, textile composites and ballistic protection.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The production of three-dimensional fibrous structures has been subject to important developments in recent years, resulting in the creation of novel fabrics and applications. Advances in 3D Textiles covers a wide range of fabric types, including their structures, properties, and uses in the textiles industry.

Part one of the book covers various 3D woven textiles, including solid 3D woven textiles and composites, hollow 3D woven textiles, shell 3D woven textiles and nodal 3D woven textiles. Part Two moves explains the features of 3D knitted, braided and non-woven textiles and developments in these areas. Part Three wraps up the book by looking at industrial applications for 3D textiles, such as the automotive and aerospace industries, medical textiles, protective clothing and sports and recreational clothing.

Advances in 3D Textiles provides a standard reference work for research and development managers in the textile industry and postgraduate students and academic researchers in textile science.

Dr Xiaogang Chen is a reader in textile engineering and materials at The University of Manchester, UK. His research is focused on modeling and manufacturing of 3D textiles for advanced composite applications, and textile based materials that protect against high and low velocity impact. He recently received the Textile Institute Warner Memorial Award for his work in textile science and technology.
