“…These models were later used as the basis for the mechanical modeling of singular stitches, i.e., unit cells of the textile mesostructure, typically for the purpose of homogenization in the context of a multiscale simulation [13]. Furthermore, the use of analytical beam formulations [14][15][16][17], numerically discretized beam and beam-like models [18][19][20], as well as 3D solid finite element methods [21][22][23][24][25][26] have already been investigated to analyse the mechanical performance of the textile based on its mesoscale. On the macroscale, textiles and textile composites can be modeled as thin shells due to their relatively small thicknesses [27].…”

“…Many other researchers have examined the mechanical properties of knitted fabrics, in terms of elasticity and geometric deformation, [27][28][29] and have conceptualized and formulated the dimensional behavior of weftknitted fabrics. For example, Vassiliadis et al 30 segmented one-quarter loops by applying numerical analysis to determine the loop parameters and estimate the loop length with better accuracy than the model of Leaf and Glaskin.…”

Inlay yarn and laid-in structures are important technical knitting elements that have been increasingly applied in the structural design of functional textiles in industrial, medical, and wearable electronics fields. However, there is no currently established geometric model to numerically analyze their spatial morphologies and structural properties. This study presents a new geometric model and numerical analysis approach to characterize spatial configurations of inlay yarn and ground yarn in a three-dimensional scenario for laid-in weft-knitted fabrics. Loop lengths of the inlay and ground yarn materials were calculated and analyzed under different contact and deformation conditions to estimate material consumption in this complex interlooping layout. Series of laid-in weft-knitted fabrics made of different combinations of ground and inlay yarns were fabricated with the 1 × 1 laid-in loop pattern and tested for the model validation. The comparisons between the experimental and calculated results indicated that the newly developed geometric model favorably agreed with the experimental measurements regarding the ground loop lengths and inlay loop lengths applied in the laid-in weft-knitted structures. The results indicated the applicability of the developed geometric model of laid-in weft-knitted fabrics with similar structural patterns in practical use. The output of this study provides a theoretical and practical reference for structural and physical properties analysis, material consumption prediction, even cost estimation of laid-in weft-knitted fabrics.
