In the broadest sense, a System-on-Chip (SOC) is a semiconductor product that incorporates significant circuit blocks (cores) from more than a single design group. Along this definition, every semiconductor manufacturer who has ever reused a large circuit design within a larger product has created a SOC, as has every ASIC designer who has ever used a foundry's memory arrays or largescale librar...

The present paper reports a detailed study on heat and moisture vapour transmission characteristics of different types of multilayered fabric ensembles. Two sets of multilayered fabrics have been prepared. In first set, two types of carded web produced from acrylic and polyester fibres with five different areal densities in each fibre type have been used as middle layer. In second set, differen...

application of human figures on brocades is valuable for studying. the existence of these motifs on the bouid’s & saljuk’s brocades indicates the popularity of them at this era in persia. these are very important sources for studying the weaving techniques. the production of silk fabrics made a magnificent period for persian textile industry. in this research work samples of fabrics with human ...

This paper outlines an ongoing project exploring the potential for knitted textiles to create architectural forms. The is inspired by processes of engineer Heinz Isler who used as a form-finding medium and subsequently set those forms into permanent structures, using knowledge acquired during that process large scale maquettes. examines how this approach could be explored textile design route i...

The aim of this study was to identify the tactile dimensions in the discrimination of light-weight wool fabrics. The participants judged the overall similarity between 21 light-weight wool fabrics using free sorting tasks. The fabrics were evaluated using active touch with limited exploratory procedure. Multidimensional scaling (MDS) was used to generate the perceptual space, revealing one dime...

The influence of different experimental conditions on the thermal comfort behavior of polyester-viscose and polyester-cotton ring and MJS yarn fabrics has been studied. The results show that the yarn structure and the fibre cross-sectional shape have a large influence on improving the thermal comfort of woven fabrics. The fabrics made from MJS yarns perform better than those of the ring yarn fa...

This paper presents the improvement of the antimicrobial character of woven fabrics based on cotton. The woven fabrics were cleaned in oxygen plasma and treated by padding with silver chloride and titanium dioxide particles. The existence of silver and titanium on woven fabrics was evidenced by electronic microscope images (SEM, EDAX) and by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The antimi...

In this article a practical mass-spring system was developed to simulate the draping of woven and knitted fabrics. The material properties important to fabric drape, including aerial density, tensile, shear, and bending properties were measured using the Kawabata Evaluation System and the experimental data were incorporated into the mass-spring model to simulate the dynamic draping behavior of ...

This paper examines the scattering effect of knit lines and voids in SOFI through simulations of THz interrogation at normal and non-normal angles of incidence and using focused and non-focused single-cycle plane waves. We model the electromagnetic field using the TE mode of the 2D Maxwell’s equations reduced to a wave equation, which are then solved with a finite-element time-domain method. Th...
