Abstract
This research seeks to investigate the effects of physical attributes of suitable knitted fabrics on the amount of pressure generated on the underlying body. We aim to predict the magnitude of pressure applied to a cylindrical body of known radius by generating specific amounts of tension to an external fabric cover. The paper first addresses the tensile properties of knitted fabric samples with different orientations to stretch, predictive pressure generated by compression garments and then discusses a method of validating the reliability of Laplace law for calculating applied pressures that are generated by compression garments.
