Impact of Textile Architecture on the Electromechanical Behavior of Conductive Carbon: Silicone Composite Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 6, 18 March 2026.
A stretchable carbon composite is integrated by stencil printing onto two different types of textile, with different yarn morphologies. The impact of the knit structure and coating direction on the performance of the sensor composite is evaluated and used to derive a model estimating nominal resistance at a given strain near the percolation threshold ...

Hybrid Finite Element Model for Predicting the Interface Pressure of Medical Compression Stockings

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 2, February 2026.
The proposed hybrid finite element model for predicting the interface pressure of medical compression stockings considers local fabric architecture and individual mechanical contributions of yarn systems. FE simulations on ankle and calf zones reproduce the therapeutic pressure gradient and match PicoPress sensor data within 10%–20% of error and ...

Diabetic Socks: A Systematic Review of the Literature and Commercially Available Products

open access: yesDiabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims In recent years, various diabetic socks have been developed and introduced to help prevent diabetes related foot ulcers (DFUs). However, the question of which type of sock is most suitable for individuals with diabetes has not been adequately addressed. This review systematically explores the current evidence regarding the performance and
