Pile weave is a form of textile created by weaving. This type of fabric is characterized by a pile —a looped or tufted surface that extends above the initial foundation, or 'ground' weave. The pile is formed by supplemental yarn running in the direction of the length of the fabric ( warp pile weave ) or the width of the fabric ( weft or ...
Ada K. Dietz (left) and Ruth E. Foster (right) weaving on Lou Tate Little Looms at the Little Loomhouse, Louisville, KY, circa late 1940s. Ada K. Dietz (October 7, 1888 – January 12, 1981) was an American weaver best known for her 1949 monograph Algebraic Expressions in Handwoven Textiles, which defines a novel method for generating weaving patterns based on algebraic patterns.
The formula was constructed by the Danish civil engineer Andreas Knudsen in 1955. It was made as a part of his final project at The Technical University of Denmark and was published for the Geotechnic Congress in London in 1956. It later became part of the Danish Code of Practice for Foundation Engineering and was named.
Pile is the raised surface or nap of a fabric, consisting of upright loops or strands of yarn. [1] Examples of pile textiles are carpets, corduroy, velvet, plush, and Turkish towels . [2] The word is derived from Latin pilus for "hair". [3]
Plain weave (also called tabby weave, linen weave or taffeta weave) is the most basic of three fundamental types of textile weaves (along with satin weave and twill). [1] It is strong and hard-wearing, and is used for fashion and furnishing fabrics. Fabrics with a plain weave are generally strong, durable, and have a smooth surface.
A knotted-pile carpet is a carpet containing raised surfaces, or piles, from the cut off ends of knots woven between the warp and weft. The Ghiordes/Turkish knot and the Senneh/Persian knot, typical of Anatolian carpets and Persian carpets, are the two primary knots. [1] A flat or tapestry woven carpet, without pile, is a kilim.
The method consists of filling the flow area with stream and equipotential lines, which are everywhere perpendicular to each other, making a curvilinear grid.Typically there are two surfaces (boundaries) which are at constant values of potential or hydraulic head (upstream and downstream ends), and the other surfaces are no-flow boundaries (i.e., impermeable; for example the bottom of the dam ...
Pile Cloth Media Filtration is a mechanical process for the separation of organic and inorganic solids from liquids. It belongs to the processes of surface filtration and cake filtration where, in addition to the sieve effect , real filtration effects occur over the depth of the pile layer.
