This book highlights the manufacturing and applications of acoustic
textiles in various industries. It also includes examples from
different industries in which acoustic textiles can be used to
absorb noise and help reduce the impact of noise at the workplace.
Given the importance of noise reduction in the working environment
in several industries, the book offers a valuable guide for
companies, educators and researchers involved with acoustic
materials.

Manikins for Textile Evaluation is a key resource for all those
engaged in textile and apparel development and production, and for
academics engaged in research into textile science and technology.
Creating garments that work with the human form, both stationary
and in motion, is a complex task that requires extensive testing
and evaluation. Manikins allow for performance testing of textiles
in a safe, controlled, and appropriate environment, and are a key
element in developing new textile products. Everyday apparel needs
to be assessed for comfort, sizing and fit, and ergonomics, while
technical and protective garments require extensive safety and
performance testing. Manikins therefore range from simple
representations of the human body to complex designs that simulate
body temperature, sweating, and motion. Manikins are safe for use
in hazardous testing environments, such as fire and flame
protection, where wearer trials would be impossible. This book
provides extensive coverage of manikin-based evaluation of
protective, heat and flame resistant, medical, and automotive
textile applications. The role of manikins in the development of
day-to-day garments is also discussed, including fit, comfort, and
ergonomics. The book is a key resource for all those engaged in
textile and apparel development and production, and for academics
engaged in research into textile science and technology.
Garment Manufacturing Technology provides an insiders' look at this
multifaceted process, systematically going from design and
production to finishing and quality control. As technological
improvements are transforming all aspects of garment manufacturing
allowing manufacturers to meet the growing demand for greater
productivity and flexibility, the text discusses necessary
information on product development, production planning, and
material selection. Subsequent chapters covers garment design,
including computer-aided design (CAD), advances in spreading,
cutting and sewing, and new technologies, including alternative
joining techniques and seamless garment construction. Garment
finishing, quality control, and care-labelling are also presented
and explored.
Automation in Garment Manufacturing provides systematic and
comprehensive insights into this multifaceted process. Chapters
cover the role of automation in design and product development,
including color matching, fabric inspection, 3D body scanning,
computer-aided design and prototyping. Part Two covers automation
in garment production, from handling, spreading and cutting,
through to finishing and pressing techniques. Final chapters
discuss advanced tools for assessing productivity in manufacturing,
logistics and supply-chain management. This book is a key resource
for all those engaged in textile and apparel development and
production, and is also ideal for academics engaged in research on
textile science and technology.
