In this work, we present the development and characterisation of new cement-based composite panels reinforced with fibres recovered from wastes protective technical clothing. The developed a flexural strength (?15 MPa) fracture toughness (?3.5 kJ/m 2 ) that are suitable for their application on ventilated façades. environmental impact these was evaluated through life-cycle assessment (LCA) crad...

BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY Thousands of workers are engaged in textile industry worldwide. Textile industry involves the use of different kinds of dyes which are known to possess carcinogenic properties. Solvents used in these industries are also associated with different health related hazards including cancer. In previous studies on textile and iron industries, the authors have reported genotoxic...

The global market for textile industry is highly competitive nowadays. Quality control in production process in textile industry has been a key factor for retaining existence in such competitive market. Automated textile inspection systems are very useful in this respect, because manual inspection is time consuming and not accurate enough. Hence, automated textile inspection systems have been d...

In a typical forensic investigation, fabric analysis plays vital role in solving different crimes. Several types of textile fibre materials (cotton, polyester, denim, polypropylene, polycotton, and viscose) were analysed the presence common contaminants (blood, rainwater, seawater, sand gunshot-residue) to evaluate performance two NIR spectrometers for situ crime scene conditions. The used SCIO...

In this chapter we focus on image segmentation techniques for some very special images — textile images. They are generated from the color halftoning technique in textile and printing production lines. In contrast with natural color images, textile images have some very distinctive features: (1) generally there are a few dominant colors in a textile image, whereas there may exist hundreds of si...
