Textiles and Human Thermophysiological Comfort in the Indoor
Environment delivers a methodical assessment of textile structures
for various applications in the indoor environment with respect to
the thermophysiological comfort of the inhabitants. The book begins
by offering an overview of the role of indoor textiles and clothing
as a barrier between the environment and the human body, and then:
Explores the use of textiles as an insulation barrier, examining
the relationships between textiles and the environment, and
textiles and the human body Details an experimental study of heat
and mass transfer processes through woven textiles with different
applications in the indoor environment Describes a numerical
investigation of the transport of air and heat through woven
fabrics by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) Develops,
applies, and verifies an original approach for simulating the woven
macrostructure as a jet system, presenting proven results Evaluates
thermophysiological comfort under the influence of indoor
environmental parameters, clothing insulation, and activity
Textiles and Human Thermophysiological Comfort in the Indoor
Environment provides a valuable reference for students and
researchers working in the area of clothing comfort.
This book presents a systematic study on methods used for the
creation of weave patterns for simple structures. Firstly, it
explains known techniques for designing new weave patterns
classified as patterns merge, motifs, patterns insertion and change
of the displacement number. These are discussed as possibilities to
create different textures and weaving effects supported by figures
of patterns, colour view, and fabric appearance simulation.
Secondly, it explains original methods for design of new weave
patterns based on Boolean operations, musical scores, written texts
and braille alphabet, including transformations performed,
advantages/disadvantages, possible applications and designs.
