American Journal of Physics, 2008 In quantum field theory the “normal ordering” of operators is routinely used, which amounts to shuffling all creation operators to the left. Potentially confusing is the occurrence in the literature of normal-ordered functions, sometimes called “Wick transforms.” In this paper, we introduce the reader to some basic results, ideas, and mathematical ...

Comfort related woven fabric transmission properties made of cotton and nylon
Fashion and Textiles, 2022 The interaction of water and air i.e. moisture regain, water vapor transmission, wicking and air permeability with woven textiles are tested to investigate the comfort of woven fabrics made of nylon, cotton, and cotton–nylon mixtures with different yarn ...

FormAkademisk - forskningstidsskrift for design og designdidaktikk, 2020 Design methods need to reconsider ways to avoid othering messiness (or what appears to be contradictory or nonsensical) within wicked problem situations, particularly crisis sites. As such, this paper suggests that play frames (defined as Fun Machines) can be utilised as situated strategies that designers can apply to address paradoxes and ...

Strain-dependent wicking behavior of cotton/lycra elastic woven fabric for sportswear
e-Polymers, 2021 The strain-dependent vertical and horizontal wicking of as-prepared cotton/lycra elastic woven fabric was systematically studied. The experimental results revealed that the fabric exhibited a strain strengthening effect.
