Additional information
This paper describes the application of queuing theory to describe the migration of fibres to different zones within a staple yarn structure. This is the first time that this theory has been applied to yarn structure and a new model formulated. It was found that the theory accurately predicts the movement of fibres to and from the surface of the yarn. This was a collaborative project with staff of De Montfort University (Siewe and Grishanov). Both teams were funded separately by EPSRC. The resultant model has significantly improved understanding of worsted yarn structure.
