i. Thermo-physiological comfort: achieving a comfortable thermal and humid condition in which the thermo-regulating capacity, the thermal insulation and the moisture-regulating capacity of the garment are considered as a function of environmental conditions (climate) and the working conditions (level of effort). Thermo-physiological comfort is strongly affected by the fabric, the style and the ...

Over the last few years, use of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composites (CFRP) in aeronautic sector has significantly increased, given these materials’ outstanding properties. Consequently, accumulation composite residues is becoming an environmental hurdle. Therefore, a world where sustainability and circularity remain on lead, replacement thermosets by thermoplastics as polymeric matrices ...

A new calculus of nuclear liquid-gas phase transition in the standard thermostatistics is applied to the generalized thermo-statistics. Because the phase equilibrium is de…ned in terms of intensive temperature and conjugate extensive entropy, we have to solve higher-order simultaneous nonlinear equations than those in the standard thermo-statistics. The features of phase transition are essentia...

Adhesive-free fiberboards can be self-bonded through high temperature thermo-compression processes. To achieve it, treatments such as steam explosion/injection, as well as chemical and enzymatic oxidation have been implemented. However, the role of extractive components in the structure and cohesiveness of fiberboards has not been fully understood. In this work fibers of leaf plantain were trea...

Degradation of residual lignin in kraft pulp by chemical bleaching is implicated in causing environmental pollution. The use of thermo- and alkali-tolerant bacterial laccases is considered to be important biological alternative to chemical processing. Laccases from Bacillus species have shown promise in this respect but their intracellular/spore bound presence make their industrial application ...
