  Design and Development of 2D Woven Auxetic Fabric Based on Double Arrow Geometry using Semi-Empirical Model
  Author(s): Shivangi Shukla*, Shreyansh Jain and B.K. Behera
  
  Auxetic materials are materials that expand in the transverse direction when stretched longitudinally, giving them some unique properties in comparison to conventional materials. In textiles, both auxetic and non-auxetic yarns can be used to weave auxetic fabrics. This article demonstrates the modeling of a double arrow auxetic geometry for estimation of Poisson’s ratio and subsequent development of a woven construction to examine the potential of this geometry to produce an auxetic fabric. The fabric structure is modified to incorporate the double arrow auxetic geometry using a combination of loose and tight weaves, as well as elastic and inelastic yarns. The fabric structure is modeled semi-empirically. To determine the effect of yarn elasticity on the auxeticity of the fabric structure, three different counts of cotton spandex yarns were used. It was observed that when the di.. Read More»
