This book offers an extensive, interdisciplinary overview of
dynamic textiles. Specifically, it discusses new findings and
design concepts concerning the integration of smart materials into
textile substrates and their corresponding dynamic behavior.
Introducing the topic of dynamic color in textiles, it presents
experimental procedures to achieve color change and dynamic light
transmittance in thermochromic textiles, and examines their
thermoresponsive behavior and respective electrical activation.
Moreover, it also addresses the topic of dynamic form and reports
on the authors' original findings using shape-memory alloys and
geometric morphologies based on origami techniques. Covering
innovative smart textiles and important considerations in terms of
design variables when developing textiles with dynamic qualities,
and providing extensive, practice-oriented insights into the
interaction of textiles with light, it is primarily intended for
academics, researchers and practitioners developing smart, dynamic
and interactive textiles. The sections describing in detail the
experimental work aimed at the integration of smart materials in
textile substrates also appeal to professionals in the textile
industry.

The book consists of multiple chapters by leading experts on the
different aspects in the unique relationship between arthropods and
plants, the underlying mechanisms, realized successes and failures
of interactions and application for IPM, and future lines of
research and perspectives. Interesting is the availability of the
current genomes of different insects, mites and nematodes and
different important plants and agricultural crops to bring better
insights in the cross talk mechanisms and interacting players. This
book will be the first one that integrates all this fascinating and
newest (from the last 5 years) information from different leading
research laboratories in the world and with perspectives from
academia, government and industry.
