Abstract Diameter of spacer filament, thickness of spacer fabric, and warp
threads per centimeter and weft threads per centimeter on plate
compression of woven spacer fabric was studied by finite element
method. Compression force and strain curves were acquired by ABAQUS
software and compression indices were featured, including
compression work, maximum compression force and compression index.
Small relative errors of compression indices between experimental
and theoretical results demonstrated that it was feasible to use
finite element method to predict plate compression performance of
spacer fabric. Woven spacer fabrics with different structure were
designed and theoretical results showed that the thicker the spacer
filament, the greater the three compression indices. Moreover,
compression stress distribution of spacer fabrics indicated that
stress of spacer filament was much larger than that of warp threads
and weft threads of surface fabrics.
