An Information Systems Implementation Model with Quality Management Approach
Information systems projects have a bad reputation due to different types of failures experienced in implementation. In most cases, a significant amount of money and effort is spent for these projects. Therefore, an effective approach to in...
Novel Method for Preparation B-Cyclodextrin / Grafted Chitosan and it's Application
A noval technique for preparation of B-Cyclodextrin / grafted chitosan was carried out by reacting B-cyclodextrin citrate (B-CDC) with chitosan. B-cyclodextrin citrate (B-CDC) was synthesis by esterifying B-cyclodextrin with citric acid in...
Fibres Influence on Human Physiological State
21st century seems to be the age of human care. Protection of environment and healthy food are already on our minds. Now it is time to look closer at the clothing we wear. Modern apparels should not only give the highest comfort but should...
Designing Shaped 3D Textile Preforms Using Weft-Knitting and Braiding Technologies
This work reports on research being carried out in order to exploit the potentialities of electronic flat knitting machines and braiding technologies in the production of novel structures made of fibre glass for use as performs in textile s...
Fabric Comfort: New Research Developments
This paper deals with the concept of fabric and clothing comfort using a new structural model in which both neurophysiologic and thermo physiological aspects are addressed. The model is primarily design-oriented in the sense that it provide...
Recent Developments in the Field of User Friendly Testing of Mechanical and Comfort Properties of Textile Fabrics and Garments
Fabrics and garments with increased comfort level based on special fibres and sophisticated fabric structure are gaining world markets in recent years and bringing much higher benefits than common products. Nevertheless, their design and ev...
Computer Simulation of Statistical Evaluation and Optimisation of Wool and Blended Fabrics Quality
To evaluate the quality level of their products, fabric manufacturers follow the recommendations of textile specialised institutions such as the Woolmark Company, without knowing its rank among the concurrent products. In the same way as Us...
Employability - The Industrial Placement
Student academic ability and employability are of equal importance in the Higher Education agenda. However the knowledge, skills and competencies developed by students during their University life may not, on there own, be sufficient prepar...
A New Method of Measuring Yarns Twist
Described is a new method of yarn-twist measurement based on observation of the behaviour of yarns during measurement of their twist. The method consists in a two-way twisting, i.e. untwisting and re-twisting, of the test sample pre-loaded...
Prediction Of Shrinkage For Circular Knitted Fabric Using Regression Analysis And Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs)
Shrinkage is a great problem of circular knitted fabric. Where if can not control it, you will loss the fabric quality and the consumer , so the aim of this paper how can you predict it. Starfish is short for “start as you mean to finish it...
Designing in 3D for Digital Printing onto Textiles
Once recognized only for sampling, ink jet printing onto textiles is rapidly developing into a viable method of printing for specialty and customized fabrics as well as for smaller run productions. Besides allowing for more flexibility in t...
Weaving for Composite Applications
Technical textiles have been applied to a wide range of areas that require specific mechanical performance. For the particular field of textile composites, the mechanical properties depend to a large extent on the yarn structure, as well as...
