Supplemental Data and R File of Material Property Data used in Compression and Fit Modelling Studies

Abstract

Supplemental record of fabric thickness, weight, and tensile data used for compression modeling. Fabric thickness and fabric weight were averaged across 5 samples for 3 synthetic textiles in various material assemblies to use for compression modeling applications. Each row in these files represents datapoint for either a single layer (textile only), two layer (textile + silicone backed elastic) or three layer (textile + elastic + textile) sample. Samples used for material testing were cut to tensile testing specifications (200 mm by 50 mm strips) and, for two- and three-layer samples, assembled into the appropriate sample type. Fabric weight and thickness (following ASTM D1777-96, 2019) were found before testing for tensile strength (following ISO 13934-1:2013). Testing was conducted across four days with an average temperature of 21.81 C (+/- 0.58 C) and a humidity of 24.13% (+/- 2.03%).
