This paper develops a dynamic analysis method for the beat-up process. Theoretical predictions of beat-up force and warp tension response during beat-up are made by setting up a weaving model under dynamic conditions. Weaving machine and fabric parameters, static and kinematic coefficient and index of friction between the warp and filling yams, total harness lift, shedding timing, back rest position, basic warp tension, and loom speed have been taken into account in predicting beat-up force and warp tension.
