Tensile behavior of staple fiber yarns, part IV: experimental verification of predicted stress–strain curves

Abstract
In this paper, specific stress–strain curves were predicted for viscose, cotton, and polyester yarns spun by ring and rotor technologies. The average fiber-specific stress–strain curves were used to predict yarn-specific stress–strain curves. The predicted yarn-specific stress–strain curves captured the experimental yarn-specific stress–strain curves well both in shape and position for the three studied yarn types. However, higher prediction error was observed relatively in polyester yarns due to more slippage of fibers in these yarns. All rotor yarns exhibited higher difference between experimental and predicted results which might be the result of the nature of the twist in rotor yarn. © 2016 The Textile Institute
