In this paper, we describe the multidisciplinary approach that we are setting up to study leptospirosis and its complex eco-epidemiology in New Caledonia. Based on an assessment of the major research needs for this neglected disease both at the global (world) and local (New Caledonia) levels, we structured our research program with three workpackages that are presented and discussed.

The denim is a fabric woven from coarse indigo dyed warp and grey un-dyed weft yarn. Denim fabric is hard-wearing and has high density with a high mass per unit area and a 3/1 or 2/1-twill weaves construction. It is comfortable, fashionable, affordable, durable and a popular clothing material. Nowadays, the stretchable denims are in fashion due to its comfort fit and flexibility. These fabrics ...

Abstract The facciata double meaning as façade and outer appearance embodies the Italian city-state’s political, cultural, social values that Leon Battista Alberti outlined in his famed De re aedificatoria libri decem (1485). This concept lies at heart of Florence’s urban fabric: one early cradles Renaissance architecture originated from artistic expenditure prosperous families including, Medic...

The paper deals with a neural network controlled switch fabric with frame prioritization support. The impact of priority levels on the functionality and efficiency of this switch fabric was deeply investigated. The results of the studies related to the impact of the amount of priority levels are published in this paper. Key-Words: Hopfield neural network, switch fabric, prioritization, priority...

Compression garments apply pressure to the body to provide health benefits, such as increasing the blood circulation, shaping the body and supporting healing after medical procedures. Fabrics used for compression garments are elastic, and the amount of fabric stretching and the ability of maintaining the stretching force are directly related to the compression effectiveness. However, there is c...

Underlying fabrics can change the appearance, function and quality of the garment, and also add so much longevity of the garment. Nowadays, with the increasing use of various types of fabrics in the garment industry, their resistance to bagging is of great importance with the aim of determining the effectiveness of textiles under various forces. The current paper investigated the effect of unde...
