Abstract

We predict the compression properties of blankets from the blanket structure and the fiber bending property. This study applies to the theory developed originally for the compressive deformation of carpets by Kimura, Kawabata and Kawai in 1970 to blankets. As a result, we found that the initial compression properties of Mayor and New Mayor blankets could be predicted by the compression theory.
