Abstract
In the paper the process of yarn breakage in a plain-weave fabric is simulated with the finite element method. The forces between yarns and between yarn and knife are integrated into the modelling. A procedure for damage and failure is proposed to describe the breaking processes and be implemented into the material model. The mechanical behaviour of yarns is analysed as a response of stabbing by a knife. It is proved that the finite element method provides an excellent insight into the breaking mechanism of yarns in woven fabrics during knife penetration.
