Creation of 3D models of basic structures of knitwea

The aim of the work is to develop 3D models of the structures of filling knit of the main and derived weaves. As the object of study, the samples of the main weave knitwear (elastic 1+1) and derived interlacing (derived surface) were selected. The process of creation of 3D models of the structure of knitwear of the main and derivative interlacings is described on specific specimen. The proposed process of creating 3D models of the structure of the knit to be divided into 4 stages: identification of the sample is knit in accordance with the generally accepted classification; the mapping of the structure of knitted fabric (geometrical model); the choice of the program for work with three-dimensional graphics; development of three-dimensional models of the structure of knitted fabric (3D model). Presentations of 3D models allow to consider the structure of knitwear in the smallest detail, from different angles, with a stop image in any position and can be used in experimental work in the production of scientific research, as well as in the educational process.
