摘要: Introduction: Cotton fabrics used in summer do not often provide good protection against solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Heavy cotton can UV However, heavy are from a comfort point of view as the air permeability and moisture vapour transmission rate is very low. Objectives: To engineer which will maximum without sacrificing minimum requirement thermal resistance for particular climatic condition. Methods: Sixteen plain sixteen twill woven were manufactured using different yarn count picks per cm. Nonlinear regression models developed to relate fabric parameters with factor (UPF), resistance. Optimization problems formulated UPF maximization keeping constraints. solved find out values New then optimized combinations cm, error assessment between target achieved properties was performed. Results: The target, showing association. When high, engineered (UPF>15). low, excellent (UPF>40). Conclusions: It possible maximize compromising properties.
