AN ENERGY APPROACH TO THE INSTABILITY PROBLEM OF OVERFED SEAMS: PART 2: EXPERIMENTAL WORK

Abstract

The article presents the test results concerning the effect of certain of the fabric properties and the stitch length on seam puckering when some degree of overfeeding is involved. The results confirm the importance of the dimensionless groups derived in Part 1 of this article.
