The permeability of sand covered with geotextile is affected by the geotextile, which related to tensile state geotextile. Considering weaving mode effects warp tension and weft on were studied experiment. Four different specifications geotextiles selected for respectively. changes parameters under non tension, measured vertical instrument, such as seepage velocity, loss gradient ratio analyzed...

BACKGROUND Bacteria from the hospital environment, including linens and curtains, are often responsible for hospital-associated infections. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the bactericidal effects of fabrics coated with the hydroxyapatite-binding silver/titanium dioxide ceramic nanocomposite "Earth-plus". METHODS Bactericidal activities of woven and nonwoven fabrics coated with E...

Windmill palm single fibers (WPSFs) and fiber bundles (WPFBs) were extracted from a windmill sheath mesh. For the palm fiber acoustic application, WPSFs/WPFBs nonwoven materials and windmill palm fiber (WPF)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) coated nonwoven mats were developed. The effects of conditions such as the thickness and surface density of the materials and the concentration of PVA were studied. ...

The presented paper concerns scientific research on processing a poly(lactide-co-glycolide-co-trimethylene carbonate) copolymer (PLLAGLTMC) with thermally induced shape memory and a transition temperature around human body temperature. The material in the literature called terpolymer was used to produce smart, nonwoven fabric with the melt blowing technique. Bioresorbable and biocompatible terp...

In recent years, textile based wound dressing products have grown from simple gauze to smart dressings with considerable technical and commercial impact. Today, wound dressings are manufactured from a large variety of different materials and applied in all phases of wound healing. In this study, commercially available wound dressing products were investigated and compared in vitro. The dressing...

Reinforcement of flexible fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) composites with standard textile fibres is a potential low cost solution to less critical loading applications. The mechanical behaviour of FRPs based on mechanically bonded nonwoven preforms composed of either low or high modulus fibres in a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) matrix were compared following compression moulding. Nonwoven pr...

The ability to engineer the feel and functional requirements in lightand medium-weight goods without contributing to environmental pollution makes the thennal bonding process an interesting technology of nonwoven production. The manufacturing conditions, processing pardmeters, and the characteristics of binder fibres have a large bearing on the properties of nonwoven products. Higher calender r...

The crimp of the text ile fibers is very crit ical to determine its properties and volumin isity. The microscopic characteristic of the nonwoven fabric is totally depends on the linearity and length of the crimp and the amplitude of the crimp. In this review paper we have discussed about the crimp calculat ion, measurement techniques and the standards used for the text ile nonwoven substrates. ...

Accurate predictions of the amount and the rate of long- term deformation of reinforced soils under an applied load are important key issue in geotechnical engineering, in which the deformation of soil develops with time at a state of constant effective stress. Since geosynthetic is generally considered creep sensitive therefore, evaluation of creep behavior of geosynthetic reinforced soil (GRS...
