Applications of polymer optical fibre grating sensors to condition monitoring of textiles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Effects of Cooling Rates on Self‐Reinforced Polyethylene Composites via Multiscale Experimental Characterizations

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
(top) fabrication and multi‐scale characterizations of self‐reinforced polyethylene composites (PE‐SRCs); (bottom) effects of cooling rates on mechanical properties and crystal morphologies of PE‐SRCs. ABSTRACT This study investigates cooling rate effects on self‐reinforced polyethylene composites (PE‐SRCs), focusing on macroscopic thermal and ...

AUGURAL TERRITORIES: On the Prophetic Organizing of the Mid‐range

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article I introduce the concept of augural territories to theorize the urbanism that emerged during pandemic lockdowns. I draw on ethnographic research in Madrid to examine how community‐based responses—including mutual aid networks, food pantries and neighbourhood associations—disrupted the spatial and temporal logics of territorial ...

A Texture‐Free Multi‐Scale Model for Surface‐Based Rendering of Knitted Fabrics

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Knitted fabrics present unique challenges for realistic rendering due to their complicated structure and scale‐dependent appearance. Existing methods typically rely on explicit yarn geometry, which is computationally complex, or texture‐based representations that require heavy storage and precomputed maps. In this paper, we introduce the first

Weaving Technologies in the Construction of a Ferry Ticket [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In 2006 myself and the painter R.A.Webb redesigned the Hythe to Southampton Pier and Ferry ten-journey ticket, to bring small messages from other passengers to the punch hole spaces; short phrases and poems that capture glimpses, thoughts or feelings ...

The effect of seawater hardness on cotton fabric dyeing using reactive blue dye

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Oceans are an abundant source of water; their economic potential has not yet been fully exploited. In this context, the current study aims to apply seawater in the dyeing of cotton fabrics, evaluating the influence that total hardness has on the process results.

Experimental methodology of study of damage initiation and development in textile composites in uniaxial tensile test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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
