This book discusses aspects of fabric structure and mechanical properties such as tensile, bending and shear properties for a range of fabrics. It illustrates the role of fabric structure and mechanics and examines the structural, tensile, bending and shear properties of woven, knitted and nonwoven fabrics. The book then reviews the structure and mechanics of yarns, coated fabrics, 2D and 3D textile composites. It also explores testing methods for the measurement of fabric mechanical properties and structure parameters.
