This book deals with the modeling and simulation techniques and its application in the field of fibrous materials. Different modeling and simulation techniques covered are: finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, artificial neural network, fuzzy logic, empirical and statistical modeling. Different fibrous materials dealt with this book are fibers, yarns, woven and nonwoven fabrics, nanofiber based nonwovens, and fiber- reinforced composites. Application of the above modeling and simulation techniques in manufacturing processes, prediction of properties and structure-property interaction are covered for fibers, yarns, fabrics, and composites. The predicted properties are mechanical, thermal, surface, fire, electromagnetic shielding, dielectric, transport, and comfort behavior.
This book is a good reference volume for the undergraduate to graduate level courses covering the background, current trend and applications of modeling in fibrous materials. This book is also a good source of information for a number of inter-disciplinary departments like mathematics, materials science, mechanical, chemical and textile engineering, and computer science.
The editor along with contributors of the chapters acknowledged various sources for granting permissions to reproduce some of the figures and tables used in this book. The editor would like to thank Dr. Rajesh Anandjiwala for going through some of the chapters and making many helpful suggestions.
