Beyond Initial Adoption: How Lean Six Sigma Is Sustained, Adapted, and Used in the U.S. Textile and Apparel Industry

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how Lean Six Sigma (LSS) currently functions in the U.S. textile and apparel industry after years of adoption and use. Moving beyond isolated project‐level evidence, this study investigates whether LSS has been implemented as an organizational capability and integrated into the corporate culture, adapted to textile‐specific

Three‐Dimensional Optical and Computational Reconstruction of Colloidal Electrokinetic Flows via Multiplane Imaging and Multiscale Modeling

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Fast 3D multiplane microscopy is combined with multiscale electrokinetic modeling to reconstruct nanoparticle motion around quadrupolar electrodes. This integrated optical‐computational framework reveals the full three‐dimensional structure of colloidal electrokinetic flows, including localized trapping, depletion layers, and complex vortical motion ...
