To assess the distortion in colour matching occurring in the process from design of a fabric to printed output, a combined objective and subjective measurement methodology was used. The results obtained from the spectrophotometer demonstrated that the hue and chroma of the printed copies...

This paper describes a new approach to find the shape of a piece of bent fabric. A general form for the potential and bending energy stored in a fabric is stated, based on the frictional couple theory. With the help of the calculus of variations the differential equation for the bent shape is...
