Civility, honour and male aggression in early modern English jestbooks

open access: yesGender &History, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 70-85, March 2026.
Abstract This article discusses the comical representation of inter‐male violence within early modern English jestbooks. It is based on a rigorous survey of the genre, picking out common themes and anecdotes, as well as discussing their reception and sociable functions. Previous scholarship has focused on patriarchs, subversive youths and impoliteness.

Performance Evaluation of Plain Weave and Honeycomb Weave Electrodes for Human ECG Monitoring

open access: yesJournal of Sensors, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Long‐time monitoring of physiological parameters can scrutinize human health conditions so as to use electrocardiogram (ECG) for diagnosis of some human’s chronic cardiovascular diseases. The continuous monitoring requires the wearable electrodes to be breathable, flexible, biocompatible, and skin‐affinity friendly.

Design and Fabrication of Smart Diapers with Antibacterial Yarn

open access: yesJournal of Healthcare Engineering, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
In this study, intelligent eco‐diapers are made by combining antibacterial yarns coated with quaternary ammonium salts with conductive yarns to improve caretaking for urinary incontinence. The combination of conductive yarns and sensors can detect the moisture content in eco‐diapers, and an alarm is sent when moisture is significant.

A Trial Production of a Loom Using Multi-Rapier Weft Insertion System

open access: yesSen'i Kikai Gakkaishi (Journal of the Textile Machinery Society of Japan), 1973
This paper describes the operating performances of the loom using the multi-rapier weft insertion system accelerated by the compressed air. The basic structure of the multi-rapier is the same as one described in the Part 1 published in Vol. 26, P667-676.The weaving speed of the loom is 59 rpm, almost equal to the mechanically accelerated multi-rapier ...

Innovative Double‐Layer Fabrics of Polyimide/Wool: Air Cavity Design for Enhanced Protection and Comfort

open access: yesAdvances in Polymer Technology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Although air layers are known to improve thermal protection, the influence of engineered air‐cavity volume in double‐layer polyimide/wool fabrics on the combined flame‐retardant, thermal‐insulating, and comfort performance remains poorly understood. This study addresses this gap by systematically designing hexagonal air‐cavity structures through the ...
