The Tunisian textile industry: local responses to internationalisation [PDF]
The continuing internationalisation of the textile industry has reduced the labour cost advantages of Tunisian clothing firms. These firms have a precarious position in the international value chain, often as subcontractors and only rarely contributing high value inputs.

Fully Flexible Textile Antenna-Backed Sensor Node for Body-Worn UWB Localization [PDF]
A mechanically flexible textile antenna-backed sensor node is designed and manufactured, providing accurate personal localization functionality by application of Decawave’s DW1000 Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband (IR-UWB) Integrated Circuit (IC). All components are mounted on a flexible polyimide foil, which is integrated on the backplane of a wearable ...

Applications of polymer optical fibre grating sensors to condition monitoring of textiles [PDF]
Fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) in polymer optical fibres (POFs) have been used to measure the strain in a woven textile. FBGs in both POFs and silica optical fibres were attached to a woven textile specimen, and their performance characterised.

Experimental methodology of study of damage initiation and development in textile composites in uniaxial tensile test [PDF]
Damage in textile composites is closely connected with the internal micro- and meso-geometry of the reinforcement, and reveals features, which are not present in the damage processes in classical laminates. This paper proposes a test sequence intended to

Textile-based heating system for safe localized warts treatment
We present an integrated system for the home treatment of cutaneous warts. Our work includes the development of a textile-based heater and electronic module regulating the temperature within the range of 43–46 °C. Commercially available silver-coated polyamide conductive threads were used for embroidering three space filling curves: a standard ...

‘The dangers attending these conditions are evident’: public health and the working environment of Lancashire textile communities, c.1870–1939 [PDF]
This article examines the position of the working environment within public health priorities and as a contributor to the health of a community. Using two Lancashire textile towns (Burnley and Blackburn) as case studies and drawing on a variety of ...
