The Authors
Chandrasekhar Iyer graduated in textile technology from the University of Bombay, did an M.Sc. post-graduate study at the University
of Manchester and obtained his doctorate from the University of
Stuttgart. After gaining experience with spinning machinery makers,
the man-made fibre industry and in scientific research, he was a
Reader and tenured Professor from 1972 in the Department of Textiles
and Clothing at the Reutlingen University, from where he retired in
2002. He read on industrial processing engineering and technology in
the field of knitting, the planning and organisation of knitting mills as
well as filament production and processing. He also instructed in
a course for Industrial Master Fitters at Reutlingen. He still gives
lectures on a part-time basis, is responsible for staple and filament
yarn technology as well as industrial textiles in short courses for the
industry and does occassional consultancy work.
He has published a number of articles not only on knitting technology in German, Indian and several European technical journals. As
Officer of International Relations in Reutlingen he was particularly
interested in fostering the exchange of students and lecturers with
foreign educational institutions and gave short-term lectures and
papers at several of these universities.
In addition to his contribution to this book he is also responsible for
its English version.
