Dynamic simulation of 3D weaving process
Textile fabrics and textile composite materials demonstrate exceptional mechanical properties, including high stiffness, high strength to weight ratio, damage tolerance, chemical resistance, high temperature tolerance and low thermal expansion. Recent advances in weaving techniques have caused …

Evaluation of mechanical properties of textile concrete subjected to different environmental exposures
… polypropylene (PP) fibres, in the form of woven textile fabrics, have proved most successful as reinforcement to cementitious matrices, leading to the development of a novel composite material: so called "Textile Concrete" (TC). Although the strength and modulus of PP are not very high, careful …

Application of natural dyes in textile industry and the treatment of dye solutions using electrolytic techniques
… dyes were applied in dyeing three types of textile fabrics viz: a) paj silk, b) brushed cotton twill and c) crystallized shimmering satin. The effects of two eco-friendly mordants (alum and iron) on the dyeing process were compared with the dyeing process without mordants. The colour …
