dc.description.abstract Dimensional change of a woven fabric is a challenge in woven fabric production. The phenomenon originates from the dimensional instability of the fabric. Shrinkage is a combined result of numerous factors such as relaxation, dyeing, finishing and the effect of machinery. The significance of this problem has been investigated by several researchers, who focused mainly on the geometry of the fabric during the weaving phase (loom stage) only. To investigate the dimensional changes that occur within a particular woven structure, a number of fabric samples were sent through various finishing processes such as, washing, dyeing & finishing, under the laboratory conditions. The changes were measured either in terms of dimensional change or EPI and PPI values. Using the experimental data and theoretical analysis, a mathematical model has been developed and validated. However initially the focus is laid on plain woven fabrics and it is expected to be further extended to the other woven structures as well. en_US
