👉 Fabric engineering is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from materials science, chemistry, physics, and mechanical engineering to design, develop, and optimize textiles and fabrics for specific applications. It involves manipulating the structure, composition, and properties of fibers at various scales—from molecular to macroscopic—to achieve desired characteristics such as strength, flexibility, breathability, durability, and functionality. Techniques range from traditional methods like spinning and weaving to advanced processes like nanotechnology, 3D printing, and smart textile fabrication. By tailoring the fabric's microstructure and surface properties, engineers can create materials that meet diverse needs in industries such as healthcare, aerospace, sportswear, and environmental sustainability, ultimately enhancing performance, comfort, and user experience.
