Biomimicking of Enzymes for Textile Processing 

Ren, Xuehong (2006-12-15)
Enzymes are very large protein compounds. A small portion of their structure constitutes their highly specific active site which is fundamentally responsible for the catalytic capability of the enzymes. To mimic the active ...

Developing a Magnetically Suspended Disc System for Industrial Applications, with Application on Ring Spinning 

Abuelenin, Sherif (2005-08-15)
A Magnetically suspended and lightweight disc (rotor) system is designed; the rotor can spin freely inside the stator. The stator is equipped with four magnetic actuators that always keep the rotor in its central position. ...

Manufacturing and Heat Transfer Analysis of Nano-Micro Fiber Composites 

Ascioglu, Birgul (2005-08-15)
Nano-micro composites are widely used in many areas, such as sensors, flame retardant materials, batteries, and filtration. In this work, thermal properties of the filler fiber composites are studied experimentally, ...

Permeation of Vapors Through Porous Membranes 

Rao, Prithi (2006-05-15)
Three types of microporous membranes have been investigated regarding their porsity and permeability for vapors. Permeation tests were carried out on membranes made from polypropylene and mixed polyethylene and polypropylene ...

Polymeric Textile Stents: Prototyping and Modeling 

Irsale, Swagat (2005-08-15)
Although metal stents have been implanted for more than a decade, performance deficiencies still exist. The current study focuses on prototyping and modeling of braided structures to be used as stents, hence called ‘textile ...

Stress Mapping of Textile Composite Materials and Its Application in Interfacial Shear Behavior 

Shady, Ebraheem (2005-12-15)
Mapping of the stress distribution in composite materials, both at the fiber/matrix interface and at the composite constituents themselves, is important to understand the material mechanical response. Stress mapping can ...

Synthesis and Applications of Novel Antimicrobial Polymeric Materials 

Lee, Jae (2006-08-15)
Antimicrobial precursors, especially N-halamine precursors, were developed and synthesized. After being applied onto polymers and fibers, the durability, rechargeability and antibacterial efficacy of the N-halamine-treated ...
