The development of a computer simulation model of the manufacture of semi-worsted wool yarns
… liquor circulation pressure. The consequences of carding are based on previously published theoretical models to explain fibre breakage on opening and the derivation of carding power. A wide range of machine variables is accommodated besides the regain and fatty-matter content of the wool. Gilling …
