Effect of hem edges on the interface pressure of pressure garments
Sau Fun Frency Ng, Chi Leung Patrick HuiPressure garments are mainly made of elastic Lycra fabrics and tailor‐made to individual patients’ measurements to provide an appropriate amount of skin‐garment interface pressure…
Estimating thermal resistance of the bedding assembly from thickness of materials
C.A. Wilson, B.E. Niven, R.M. LaingThe purposes of this work were to determine: whether thickness of single layers can be used to accurately predict thickness and thermal resistance of multiple layer assemblies;…
Multiaxial determination of the resistance to creasing of clothing wool fabrics
Nikolic´, Lj.M. Simovic, T.V. MihailovicIn this paper, values of deformation components (elastic, viscoelastic, plastic) of clothing wool fabrics by measuring the crease recovery angle in various directions to the warp…
Simulation modeling of a garment production system using a spreadsheet to minimize production cost
M.R. Rotab KhanA methodology of structuring a garment production simulation model using a spreadsheet is described to minimize the average daily production cost through the investigation of…
An experimental study of needle heating in sewing heavy materials using infrared radiometry
Evangelos Liasi, Ruxu Du, Dan Simon, Jasmina Bujas‐Dimitrejevic, Frank LiburdiThis paper presents an experimental study on needle heating in sewing heavy materials such as upholstery fabrics. In the experiments, infrared (IR) radiometry, high speed line…
