Inkjet-Fabricated Capacitors on Paper and Textile Fabrics

Overview of Flow through Textile and Fabrics

An overview of single and multiphase flows through woven and nonwoven fibrous materials is presented. A computational model for analyzing fluid flow through such media is described and sample computational results are presented. It is shown that by generating virtual geometries that resemble the microstructure of a fibrous material one can study the fluid and particle transport through such por...

Machine Vision Based Inspection of Textile Fabrics

Several issues on automatic inspection of textile fabrics are discussed in this paper. To avoid the intense computation for real time inspection, we suggest a parallel pyramid hardware architecture consisting of several channels with CCD cameras in different resolutions working simultaneously. In inspection algorithms, we use a hierarchy of improved BP neural networks which demonstrate a tree s...

Inkjet printed flexible antenna on textile for wearable applications

We report a direct write inkjet printing technique for fabricating a flexible antenna on textile for use in smart textile applications such as wearable systems (Rienzo et al. 2006). The complete antenna was deposited entirely using inkjet printing. The inkjet printed antenna is based on a half wavelength dipole antenna offering a planar structure and acceptable size. The printable silver nanopa...

Textile Dyeing: Environmental Friendly Osage Orange Extract on Protein Fabrics

Influence of paper and ink on deinking of inkjet prints

Hewlett-Packard (HP) is actively engaged in external and internal research to ensure that deinkability of the current recycled paper streams is maintained as the percentage of digital prints in deinking mill furnish increases. As part of this effort, HP is working to understand how ink and paper interactions affect the flotation deinking process. Results continue to show that paper type and des...

Inkjet-printed antennas, sensors and circuits on paper substrate

Inkjet-printing is a very promising technology for the development of microwave circuits and components. Inkjetprinting technology of conductive silver nanoparticles on an organic flexible paper substrate is introduced in this study. The paper substrate is characterised using the T-resonator method. A variety of microwave passive and active devices, as well as complete circuits inkjet-printed o...
