Structure and Tightness of Woven Fabrics Indian Journal of Textile Research Vol. 12, June 1987, pp. 71-77 Structure and Tightness of Woven Fabrics S GALUSZYNSKIa School of Textiles, University of Bradford, Bradford BD7 IDP, U'K, Received 1 December 1986; accepted 27 January 1987 Fabric tightness and cover factor are discussed. Cover factor depends on yarn diameter and fabric sett only, whereas the fabric tightness also incorporates the weave. Fabric tightness is defined as the ratio of actual square fa- bric sett over the theoretical maximum square fabric sett for a defined weave and yam. Fabric tightness is recom- mended for use as a coefficient to indicate the fabric structure for comparison of their properties. Some examples are given to show the applicability of the recommendation.

The calculation of the fabric cover factor ... (2.4) does not incorporate weave intersections and K=K,+K2-K,K2 therefore this parameter should not be used to in- dicate the fabric structure (Appendix 1). The par- p ameter which indicates fabric structure is the coef- ficient of fabric tightness, which depends on yam raw material, linear density (count), weave and fa- bric sett. The aim of this paper is to introduce the term 'fabric tightness' in comparison with fabric cover factor. 2 Fabric Cover Factor The fabric cover factor K is defined as the pro- portion of the fabric area covered by actual yarn", In practice, cover factors are calculated for warp KI and weft K2 independently, being given, re- spectively, by the proportion of fabric area covered by the yarn in that particular sheet.

    Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’s Cotton Frontier c.1890-1950 By Jack Southern A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of a PhD, at the University of Central Lancashire April 2016 1 i University of Central Lancashire STUDENT DECLARATION FORM I declare that whilst being registered as a candidate of the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another aware of the University or other academic or professional institution. I declare that no material contained in this thesis has been used for any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ________________________________________________ Type of Award: Doctor of Philosophy School: Education and Social Sciences ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the evolution of identity and community within north east Lancashire during a period when the area gained regional and national prominence through its involvement in the cotton industry. It examines how the overarching shared culture of the area could evolve under altering economic conditions, and how expressions of identity fluctuated through the cotton industry’s peak and decline. In effect, it explores how local populations could shape and be shaped by the cotton industry. By focusing on a compact area with diverse settlements, this thesis contributes to the wider understanding of what it was to live in an area dominated by a single industry. The complex legacy that the cotton industry’s decline has had is explored through a range of settlement types, from large town to small village.

    BEYOND BINARY: NAVAJO ALTERNATIVE GENDERS THROUGHOUT HISTORY BY: CHRISTINA JORDAN NARUSZEWICZ A thesis submitted to the graduate faculty in partial fulfillment requirements for the degree of MASTERS OF MUSEUM STUDIES IN HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY University of Central Oklahoma 2016 0 1 Acknowledgments I would like to thank the community of scholars I have worked with over the past two years within the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO). By working with professors and students as colleagues, I received community support that drove this research through the dead ends and quandaries. Firstly, I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Lindsey Churchill for her insight and friendship as both my graduate advisor and committee chair. Through her mentorship, I challenged myself both academically, professionally, and personally. Dr. Katrina Lacher, also on my committee, helped introduce me to the subject of Two-Spirit individuals and guided my research for the historiography of the subject. Dr. Patricia Loughlin, the Chair of the History and Geography Department, has shown a constant interest in my research and offered several research suggestions that provided critical insight for several chapters. To my friends and family thank you for you enduring support and patience. To the community of scholars at UCO, thank you for the debates and conversation. I would like to thank Neal Hampton for suggesting that I look into Newcomb’s Hosteen Klah: Navajo Medicine Man. A suggestion that jump-started this whole thesis. I am especially grateful to Alexander Larrea, for all the proof-reading, and last minute technology help sessions. Finally, my thesis would not have been possible without the services and efforts of the staff at several institutions.

  • How Do We Name a Weave? Weaves Three Basic Weaves
    How do we name a weave? • Fabric structure • Fabric weight • • Yarn balance • Finishes Weaves Basic weaves – Plain weave • Basket weave – Twill weave • even-sided • warp-faced – Satin weave • • Sateen Complex weaves – Figured weave • Lappet, swivel, spot • Jacquard – Pile weave – Leno weave – Crepe and crepe effect Three Basic Weaves • Plain weave : made by weaving one weft yarn over and under each warp yarn, alternating each row. It is the most common type of weave. • Twill weave : • • Satin weave : made by "floating" the warp or weft yarns across several yarns to bring them to the surface. Plain Weaves • Simplest weave, can be made on a loom having only two harnesses. • Weave provides maximum number of yarn interlacings: each warp goes over one fill then under the next, with odd and even yarns weaving opposite to each other. Characteristics of Plain Weave • Raveling related to count & yarn cohesiveness • • • Used in apparel, furnishings, & industrial goods • Weight dictates end use: lighter weights in apparel & curtains; heavier weights in upholstery, draperies, & industrial goods Fairchild’s Dictionary of Textiles, 7th ed. Plain weaves • Simplest and most important of the three basic weaves, used in about 80% of all woven fabric • The plain weave repeats on two ends and two picks. The first end passes over the first pick and under the second pick. The second pick reverses this action, and weaves one down and one up. The weave is executed by passing each filling yarn successively over and under each warp yarn, alternating each row. • • • • Broadcloth, Calico, Muslin, Print cloth, Sheeting, Taffeta • Derivative; Basket weave Plain Weaves • About 90% of all cloth woven is plain weave.
