Optimization of slit density distribution in shoe upper made of warp knitting to optimize the contact pressure

A method for finding the optimum distribution of the slit density in a shoe upper, such that the contact pressure with the foot approaches an ideal distribution is presented in this paper.In a shoe upper made of warp knitting, slits are made by discontinuously knitting the weft under a uniform arrangement of the warp fiber.In this study, the shoe u
