Simulation of Small Filament Bundles Breaking Process

Abstract

The strength of fibers and fibrous bundles is a very important parameter, especially for industrial applications of textile structures. It is possible to use simulations, particularly for smaller samples. This paper describes the bundle strength of PET filaments from a statistical point of view. The small bundles from 2 till 10 filaments were tested. The simulation-based bundle breaking process combined with bootstrapping was used for estimating bundle strength.
