Some Significant Advances in Yarn Splicing Technology: (LTTFD) - Lupine Publishers


The article reviews some of the significant researches in the yarn splicing technology. The effect of important factors on the breaking force of wet spliced yarns has been studied by means of a central composite design, which is a statistical tool. The impact of vent pressure on the quality of yarn splicing when twisting and untwisting has been investigated. Modelling, analysis, and simulation of the air splice is done with the integration of two software's, so as to analyse the flow field and obtain the effect of speed and pressure of the inside the splicing chamber when changing the speed and the pressure while maintaining the diameter of the splicing, the vent hole diameter and the relative angle unaltered. The influence of cotton/polyester fibre blend ratios on spliced portion diameter at various splicing air pressures has been studied. Studies have been directed regarding the influence of various yarn splicing parameters on the strength, elongation and the appearance of spliced cotton/flax yarn. A number of independent variables have been considered. A half factorial experimental design has been used with two levels of each variable. The design and analysis of experiments have been achieved with a specific software.

The Application Wearable Thermal Textile Technology in Thermal-Protection Applications: (LTTFD) - Lupine Publishers

The Application Wearable Thermal Textile Technology in Thermal-Protection Applications by Li Li in Latest Trends in Textile and Fashion Designing (LTTFD) in Lupine Publishers

The needs for better thermal protection exist in various fields of our life, like the better thermal treatment, outside chill sports field and freezing working condition etc. However, the traditional passive thermal insulated clothing is insufficient, too blocky and heavy to constrain the movement of wearers and uncomforted to wear. Thus, an innovative light, flexible and active wearable thermal protection needs to be developed. This article reviews the relevant wearable thermal textile technology by utilizing the latest conductive textile materials in three developing levels: the fiber level, the yarn level and the fabric level, to provide more possibilities for new products development in various fields, which will facilitate the transfer from research achievement into mass production to realize its commercial benefits.

A Combined Material Substitution and Process Change Approach to Sustainable Batik Production: (LTTFD) - Lupine Publishers



This paper empirically presents a batik production process optimization using sustainable production (SP) methods. The stages of batik production processes involve designing, methodology, dyeing, washing, and finishing. The cost of production is determined by the implementation efficiency and calculation of output to input ratio in the production process. The case study method is employed for production process optimization in two batik enterprises in the Kumasi metropolis. The main objective of this research, is to determine the impact of material sustainability, and the minimization of the production process cost in order to promote maximum operational economic benefits. The implications of this intervention shows that, in batik production process, there could be a saving cost of resisting material by GH₡ 31.00, with a process time of 290mins and an activity cost reduction of GH₡ 68.00 by just replacing paraffin wax with cassava starch. The identified intervention has also been found as significant to address the identified issues that bring a substantial change in the current manufacturing practices of the batik industry. It is recommended that much is to be gained in sustaining the practice when cultural themes are employed in the artifacts created.

An Infrared Technique for Rapid Analysis of Pineapple leaf fibre-Acrylic Blends: (LTTFD) - Lupine Publishers



An infrared technique used to analyze pineapple leaf fibre-acrylic blends of different blend compositions is reported. Blend estimations are effectuated from a calibration plot between the absorption of the 2235 cm-1 band (C≡N) and the composition percentages of acrylic fibres. The theoretical and actual blend composition by chemical method divulges matching with each other.




Future Trends in Production and Consumption in Textile and Fashion Design: The Fourth Industrial Revolution: (LTTFD) - Lupine Publishers



Designers create products, services and systems to fulfill the society’s needs and desires. The adoption of Information Technology (IT) has changed the way designers develop new products. The collaborative work environment is a new paradigm of product design that integrates designers to quickly build, evaluate, optimize and select the best solution to complex problems [1]. In the last 20 years, internet has changed the way people communicate. The first era (1995), internet was an integrated hypermedia, in the second era (2000) internet had a programming media approach, that changed to people’s web service in the third era (2005), and the fourth era - which encompasses nowadays – represents a new level of organization and management of the entire value chain on the products’ life cycle. The Industrie 4.0 or Fourth Industrial Revolution is an integrative cyber-physical system based on modern control systems, embedded software systems and Internet addresses. This industrial revolution is based on improvement of brainwork, especially in engineering activities, and fast decision-making [2].




Theoretical Study of Movements Trash in Cotton Lobules In Cleaner Small and Large Trash: (LTTFD) - Lupine Publishers



The article considered mathematical model that describes the separation of large and small trash by weight of cotton, with elastic connection on the cotton. The relationship between the forces acting on the speck on the angular velocity and the radius of the working drum cleaner, laws of motion specks obtained on the surface and inside the cotton mass on the process parameters.
