Abstract:

In order to analyze the stress of cotton fiber assembly in compression and improve the quality of cotton bales, a new model for three-dimensional braided composites is established. In this model, cotton fiber bundles were assumed to have the same circular cross-section and arranged according to the three-cell structure of three-dimensional four-direction braided composites. The model was subjected to compression analysis assuming a cotton fiber assembly, and the relationship between compressive stress and relative density was analyzed with the variation of cotton fiber stress. In addition, the influence of moisture regain on the compressive stress of cotton fiber assembly was analyzed. The results show that the stress of cotton fiber assembly decreases first and then increases as the moisture regain is increased. When the moisture regain is between 8.8% and 12.3%, the stress of cotton fiber is the minimum. The finite element analysis results are consistent with the experimental results, demonstrating the validity of the model.
