NEW APPROACHES TO JUSTIFICATION OF MATERIALS FOR GARMENTS USING THE EXAMPLE OF A MEN’S T-SHIRT

Abstract

The possibility of using modern methods of virtual fitting of clothes on an avatar of the human body in the process of forming the quality of garments is shown. A general scheme for calculating the me-chanical processes developed in garments when fitting the human body in statics and dynamics is presented, as well as the main directions for automating the calculation process. Based on the chosen numerical method, the problem of selecting textile materials to ensure the required quality of the product was solved using the example of a men’s T-shirt. The mechanical properties of several samples of knitted fabrics for such products were determined. Based on the obtained values, the calculation of stress fields in the parts of a men’s T-shirt in various body avatar poses was carried out. An experimental verification of the modelling results was carried out. Regularities have been established between the mechanical properties of knitted fabric and the nature of stress in the structure of the product. The possibility of their use when choosing textile materials is shown from the point of view of ensuring the required quality of products at the design stage.
