- Additional information
- This research was co-financed by the European Social Fund and Greek national funds through National Strategic Reference Framework (NSRF): Heraclitus (Grant No: 4190.01.56). The main thrust of this study was to investigate the role of the underlying microstructure of textiles used in high end applications, like surgery material Dacron. The modelling of yarns and wefts in these fabric-like materials through microstructural cable approach provided better understanding of the mechanical behaviour and optimized the final products in terms of stiffness, flexibility and moisture absorption.
