Electronic textiles (e-textiles) are emerging as a novel method for constructing electronic systems in wearable and large area applications. This new type of processing system merges textile and electronic technologies. This paper studies the communication requirements between the computing and sensing elements of an e-textile. This communication is studied through the construction of a prototy...

Recently, flexible triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have gained significant interest as a promising autonomous technology for harvesting abundant mechanical energy and powering portable electronic devices. In this work, high-performance single-electrode TENG (SETENG) is presented with highly conductive carbon cloth (CC) textile electrode an encapsulating material based on polydimethylsiloxa...

In the present paper comparison of dimensional accuracy and form errors FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) 3D printed spur gears obtained in two different polymeric materials (PLA Nylon-PA6) is presented. Two types were designed printed, having module teeth number. First, gear modelling process The printing parameters defined for both materials. Then, measuring processes described. Using method s...

OBJECTIVES Lung exposures including cigarette smoking and silica exposure are associated with the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We investigated the association between textile dust exposure and the risk of RA in the Malaysian population, with a focus on women who rarely smoke. METHODS Data from the Malaysian Epidemiological Investigation of Rheumatoid Arthritis population-based case-cont...

atechnical feasibility study has been conducted on production of nano- and micro-fibrils from nylon 6/polypropylene grafted with maleic anhydride/polypropylene blended films. fibrils are prepared in four consecutive steps.in the first step the polymers melt blended in an extruder with and without compatibilizers to produce chips; in the second step films are extruded from polymer blends chips, ...

Indian textile industry occupies a unique position in the Indian economy. Over the period, it has gone through several changes. In the present paper, an attcmpt has been made to present an overview of Indian textile industry in terms of its structure, associated problems, its impact on environment, pollution control strategies, German ban on azo dyes, response of textile ministry to cope with t...

In general terms a fabric filter system consists of a porous flexible layer of textile material through which a dusty gas is passed to separate particles from the gas stream. Deposits on the textile are removed periodically by powerful moving and thereby cleaning of the cloth to maintain the pressure drop across the filter within practical operating limits. There are several methods to make the...

Unit cell homogenization techniques are applied on multiple length scales to compute the macroscopic hyperelastic stiffness characteristics of textile-reinforced polymer matrix composites. On the smallest scale (~50μm) the effective transversely isotropic properties of tows (or yarns) are computed based on both fiber and matrix properties. These position-dependent transversely isotropic effecti...
