This study concerns contemporary cultural buildings in the historic city centre of Krakow, Poland, and their assessment terms sustainability. The paper aims to bridge a research gap previous studies on pluralistic values impact heritage comparative case conducted Krakow evaluate functioning potential space towards achieving following five goals: accessibility, conservation, mix functions, aesth...

Regarded as important cultural heritage, historic churches have been utilised over hundreds of years for worship and community benefit. Simple on/off space heating systems are installed in many to increase human comfort. However, the conservation artefacts artwork contained within may not fully considered. This review attempts appraise standards place artwork. A consensus 15–25 °C 40–65% relati...

Abstract Imageability is the quality of a place that makes it distinct, recognizable, and memorable. It defines character identity for cities. However, fast expansion urban development affects image city its fabric toward mega scale transforms cities local cultural life as loosing most their historic fabrics. These make loose there images gradually. Hence, aim this paper to explore main physica...

In this paper, finite element model of woven fabric target has been investigated which is impacted by a cylindrical projectile. Fabrics are impregnated with Shear Thickening Fluid (STF). The effects of the (STF) have been considered as frictional effect. The STF has been made (Nano Silica and Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)) and then diluted by ethanol proportion of 3:1. Yarn pulling out test from in...

Automated fabric inspection system is important to prevent delivering of inferior quality fabric and designed to increase the accuracy, consistency and speed of defect detection in fabric manufacturing process to reduce labor costs, improve product quality and increase manufacturing efficiency. Fabric inspection is still carried out offline and manually by humans with many drawbacks such as tir...

In this study, we examined the fate and future of sewage irrigation fields; historic urban wetlands that served as sewer drainage before modern treatment plants were built. Our aim in study was to reappraise fields fabric cities analyse possibility re-integrating them into ecosystem services system, well green blue infrastructure, providing leisure recreational opportunities, stabilising city’s...

To detect defects in woven fabric a reduced coefficient fabric space is constructed, for which the principal components representing row and column wise data distribution of the training fabric sub images are determined with the help of a novel singular value decomposition based method. The size of this reduced coefficient fabric space is suitably optimized by particle swarm optimization method...

Cotton fabric was grafted with a poly (acrylamide-co-itaconic acid) co-polymer via ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) induced graft co-polymerization in an aqueous medium. The grafted cotton fabric was loaded with Ag nanoparticles by entrapment of Ag+ ions into a grafted polymer network, followed by borohydride reduction. The resulting Ag nanoparticle-loaded grafted fabric was characterized by Fourie...

Recently, mesh networking and blockchain are two of the hottest technologies in the telecommunications industry. Combining both can reformulate internet access and make connecting to the Internet not only easy, but affordable too. Hyperledger Fabric (HLF) is a blockchain framework implementation and one of the Hyperledger projects hosted by The Linux Foundation. We evaluate HLF in a real produc...

Here, in situ synthesis of nano zinc oxide, along with aminolysis of polyester fabric, has simultaneously been carried out by using triethanol amine (TEA) and zinc acetate. The ZnO nano particles (NPs) were formed and stabilized on the fabric surface by amine compound at 130 °C for 1 h. The synthesis of nano ZnO particles on the polyester fabric were confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern...
