Sensitivity of the Heat and Mass Transport System Within Neonate Clothing
Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2015, Vol 23, Issue 3
Abstract
The global model of heat and mass transport is determined by means of the heat balance with a term describing evaporation of sweat. Heat is supplied by metabolic heat production and lost by means of different phenomena within all body portions. The global correlation can be solved for prescribed parameters of the bonnet and external clothing. Different clothing materials, covering area and thickness of the bonnet, as well as characteristic times are discussed to prevent hyperthermia and hypothermia.

Unidirectional Torsion Properties of Single Silk Fibre
The unidirectional torsion properties of silk fibre were investigated on a purpose-built single fibre torsion tester. The torsional fracture angle and the number of cycles of torsion at breaking were recorded, and the ef...
Fabrication of High Nano-ZnO Doped with Boric Acid Assembled on Cotton Fabric with Flame Retardant Properties
In this study, an attempt was made to investigate the flame retardancy of cotton fabrics coated with a high nano-ZnO content. Via a simply method in situ, a novel ZnO/cotton composite can be fabricated with a high propor...
Recognition of Weave Patterns of Striped Fabrics Using Optical Coherence Tomography
The recognition of woven fabric repeat by conventional techniques is labour intensive. In general, woven fabric repeat identification is accomplished automatically by employing complex algorithms and techniques. These al...
