In the second part of this series, tensile properties of tricot structure were investigated. Then derived model was extended to locknit and satin as first group of fully thread two-needle bar warp-knitted fabrics. In the present study, tensile properties of second group of these warp-knitted fabrics, i.e. reverse locknit and three- and four-needle sharkskin, are considered using energy method and Castigliano%26apos;s theorem. For this purpose, the difference between the tensile properties of the first and second group of warp-knitted fabrics is attributed to the movement space and friction of back bar underlaps. Similar to previous part, free-body diagrams of elements are drawn to show the relative magnitude and direction of all forces acting upon an object in a given situation. Finally, the initial modulus of second group of warp-knitted fabrics is obtained.
