Embroidered Coils for Magnetic Resonance Sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Magnetic resonance imaging is a widely used technique for medical and materials imaging. Even though the objects being imaged are often irregularly shaped, suitable coils permitting the measurement of the radio-frequency signal in these systems are ...

Why do we observe significant differences between measured and ‘back-calculated’ properties of natural fibres? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The drive towards sustainability, even in materials technologies, has fuelled an increasing interest in bio-based composites. Cellulosic fibres, such as flax and jute, are being considered as alternatives to technical synthetic fibres, such as glass, as ...

Experimental investigation on performance of fabrics for indirect evaporative cooling applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© 2016 Indirect evaporative cooling, by using water evaporation to absorb heat to lower the air temperature without adding moisture, is an extremely low energy and environmentally friendly cooling principle.

Fingertip skin models for analysis of the haptic perception of textiles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents finite element models of the fingertip skin which have been created to simulate the contact of textile objects with the skin to gain a better understanding of the perception of textiles through the skin, the so-called hand of textiles.

Fibre hybridisation in polymer composites: A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Fibre-reinforced composites are rapidly gaining market share in structural applications, but further growth is limited by their lack of toughness. Fibre hybridisation is a promising strategy to toughen composite materials.

Effect of freezing temperature and stacking sequence on the mechanical properties of hybrid fibre metal laminates made with carbon, flax, and sugar palm fibres

open access: yesBioResources, 2019
Fibre metal laminates (FML) were reinforced with flax and sugar palm fibres in different stacking sequences and exposed to freezing conditions. The effects on the mechanical properties were explored.

The green, blue and grey water footprint of crops and derived crop products [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This study quantifies the green, blue and grey water footprint of global crop production in a spatially-explicit way for the period 1996–2005. The assessment improves upon earlier research by taking a high-resolution approach, estimating the water ...
