the quality of firms’ reaction against demand uncertainty affects the production inputs employment. in this research i have studied and compared the behavior of active firms in manufacturing sector with respect to the risk attitude and tested it’s effect on production inputs combination(with the special emphasize on labor employment). the research findings reveal that active firms in manufactur...

In this paper we show how we have applied, in a current project, mobile agent technology to an industrial process in the field of textile manufacturing. The project involves several companies, each of which is a Europe-wide representative of one of the key phases of the textile production process (e.g. spinning, weaving, dyeing, finishing and ready made clothing). The main contribution of this ...

The primary attempt of this paper is to evaluate the performance of manufacturing companies based on CVP (Cost-Volume-Profit) analysis in Bangladesh. To attain this purpose, 14 manufacturing companies have been surveyed from Textile Industry. This study has also been attempted to examine the influence of key indicators of CVP analysis in performance evaluation in textile industry. The study fin...

The apparel segment of the U.S. textile industrial complex is under tremendous pressure from foreign competition. The apparel industry is trying to respond to this pressure by changing its production philosophy to accommodate the consumer demand for ever increasing style variation and retailer demands for more frequent Just-In-Time (JIT) deliveries of smaller orders. The apparel industry must b...

RELEVANCE TO NTC GOALS: The apparel segment of the U.S. textile industrial complex is under tremendous pressure from foreign competition. The apparel industry is trying to respond to this pressure by changing its production philosophy to accommodate the consumer demand for ever increasing style variation and retailer demands for more frequent Just-In-Time (JIT) deliveries of smaller orders. The...

Textile printing systems are needed that will meet the requirements of time-driven, demand activated manufacturing. Electrophotography and ink-jet printing are technologies that have the potential of meeting these requirements. Textile-specific, electrophotographic and ink-jet printing toners/inks must be developed if these technologies are to gain acceptance in the textile industry. The develo...

Textiles is one the nation’s oldest industries, dating back to be beginning of the American industrial revolution in the 1790s. Despite perceptions of the decline of U.S. textile manufacturing in the face of offshore competition, the industry remains one of the largest, most diverse, and dynamic segments of the U.S. manufacturing sector. This manual represents a comprehensive history of the U.S...

For the manufacturing of composite materials with textile reinforcement, the permeability of the textile is a key characteristic. Using the law of Darcy, permeability can be derived from a numerical simulation of the fluid flow, i.e. by solving the Navier-Stokes or Brinkman equations. In this paper we present the results of simulations with two different flow solvers: a finite difference Navier...

Additive manufacturing (3D-printing) is a rapidly emerging technology grouped under the heading of Industry 4.0 and revolutionises way products are created. One area textiles (apparel) where additive allows rapid fabrication that not easily produced using traditional approaches. In this review, we provide an overview recent developments in textile highlighting exciting growing research offer in...
