Modeling of Power Consumption and Fault Tolerance for Electronic Textiles
The developments in textile technology now enable the weaving of conductive wires into the fabrics. This allows the introduction of electronic components such as sensors, actuators and computational devices on the fabrics, creating electronic textiles (e-textiles). E-textiles can be either wearable …

The linear elastic biaxial response of plain-woven meshes
Castigliano's second theorem is applied to determine the linear elastic constitutive response of plain-weave meshes under biaxial tension and bending. In-plane force-deflection relations are derived through examining a representative element of the mesh. The analysis includes the contributions of …

From Lancashire to Bombay: Commercial Networks, Technology Diffusion, and Business Strategy in the Bombay Textile Industry
This thesis is an analysis of technology diffusion and the long-run institutional impact of the nature of that diffusion. It examines how a growing commercial trading relationship with Lancashire-based millwrights enabled textile industrialisation in late 19th century Bombay, and reflects upon the …

Viscoelastic response of wound polymer cord with multiple filament cross-sections
In this thesis, the Theory of Wire Rope, developed by George Costello, is modified to include the time-dependent response of twisted polymer fibers under an applied axial load. This modified theory incorporates the cord material's response by utilizing the Wiechert model and the Schapery …

Fibre Production Among the Coastal Hunter-gatherers of South America’s West Coast: New Narratives from Plant Fibre Technologies
This research investigates textile technologies among the people of the coastal Andean Preceramic Period (10,000 – 3,500 BP) by studying the technological production of bast fibre artefacts from six archaeological sites in Peru and Chile. The raw materials, technological processes and manufacturing …
