Full textThis study is part of Interreg European Project between Haute de France and Belgium. The project is called Photonitex. The aim of this project is to develop a personal thermal regulation intelligent textile that dynamically controls skin temperature. This work was done in collaboration between Centre Européen des Textiles Innovants (CETI) and School National Superior of Textile Arts and Industries (ENSAIT).The objective of this thesis is to develop a bicomponent fibers for thermal comfort textile. The literature review was done to select the most suitable polymer materials that are commonly used in textile industry. In addition, based on the literature review, the design of the trilobal bicomponent fibers was finalized to realize the dynamic thermal comfort textile. Moreover, used polymer materials must exhibit hydrophilic difference to achieve the dynamic thermal properties in fabrics. The inner material of this bicomponent trilobal fiber must be more hydrophilic than the outer material. PA6 and PA6-6 were selected as hydrophilic core and PET hydrophobic outer material for trilobal bicomponent filaments. However, PA6 and PA6-6 are incompatible and immiscible to PET. The major challenge to achieve the desired bicomponent fibers is to acquire a sufficient adhesion at the interface to avoid the pre-splitting or separation between these two polymer materials. In order to improve their miscibility at the interface PA12 was added in PA6 and PA6-6 at 5, 10, 15% wt % via polymer compounding process. In order to produce trilobal bicomponent filament via coextrusion melt spinning process, rheological behavior of the used polymer materials play an important role. To select the most suitable materials for trilobal bicomponent fiber, rheological studies were conducted on pure and polymer blends using capillary rheometer. In addition, hydrophilic properties of each polymer and their blends were also tested on knitted fabrics with contact angle and wicking measurements. To evaluate the effect of PA12 on PET and PA6 interfacial adhesion, bicomponent PET/PA6 sheath/core fibers were produced via melt spinning process and interfacial adhesion was investigated through techniques (tensile test, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA), Wide Angle Xray Diffraction (WAXD), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)). Based on the obtained results from the above mentioned techniques, the most suitable composition was produced in trilobal bicomponent fibers for thermal comfort fabrics. Simulation studies were also performed using Compuplast 3D FEM software to optimize the melt spinning process settings and produce trilobal bicomponent fibers.The textile made out of such innovative bicomponent fibers will show a self-actuation phenomenon are autonomous, self-empowered, and adaptive to the environment. This will help to mitigate the higher energy consumptions by conventional indoor heating, cooling, and ventilation systems and eventually minimizes the global energy consumptions and climate issues

Full textFor the past ten years, photonic nanostructures have represented a paradigm for the control of thermal radiations, offering a panel of exciting properties for energy applications. Because of their abilities to control and manage electromagnetic waves at the Mid-Infrared (Mid-IR) wavelength scale, photonic nanostructures demonstrate their ability to manage thermal radiations properties in a way drastically different from conventional thermal emitters. The fundamental advances in controlling thermal radiation led to different applications in the energy domain, as thermo photovoltaic devices or through the concept of daytime radiative cooling to passively decrease the temperature of terrestrial structures. Recently, another field of application has appeared in the thermal radiation control, with the introduction of photonic nanostructures in textiles for personal thermoregulation. The goal of the thesis is to study different passive photonic membranes that modulate the human body optical radiations in the Mid-IR for personal thermoregulation. We have investigated the optical properties of different polymer membranes, considering the effect of their structuration. We showed that a photonic crystal membrane is able to modulate the transmission coefficient by 28% in benefit or deficit of both the absorption and reflection. We analyzed the thermal balance between the human body and the indoor environment through the photonic membrane, considering the radiation, convection and conduction mechanisms. We found that the temperature of the skin is almost 2°C higher when the human body is clothed with a structured membrane. The study was carried out on analytical calculations and numerical simulation with the help of the finite element method (FEM). The numerical study was supported by experiments in fabrication in the IEMN cleaning room and in characterization by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) at the HEI engineering school

Full textNowadays there is a growing interest in the relation between the textile materials and human being, and the comfort has become much more important to consumers. For this reason our work is based on optimization of the characterization of the comfort (wearing comfort) in relation with the fabrics used to produce men’s shirts. To achieve this study, several methods of analysis have been used:- Instrumental analysis: To measure mechanical properties, classical characterization tools have been used to measure:Mechanical properties (shear, bending, compression, friction and surface) Thermal comfort (warm-cool sensation)Physical properties (air permeability, capillary absorption ... etc. . .). - Sensory analysis: Thanks to the trained panel that has been developed and used since 2001 at LPMT, the quantitative descriptive evaluation of the selected product using has been carried out.- Hedonic Analysis: Evaluation of comfort by consumer surveys.- Marketing study: To investigate the influence of the brand or some innovative mention like “anti-sweat ring” on the comfort evaluation of fabrics, in comparison with the evaluation realized by touching or by touching-seeing.- Blocks analysis: it aims to optimize the processes of product development, taking in consideration the requested consumer’s satisfactions especially in term of comfort. It consists of studying the relation between the block parameters and the mechanical properties of the fabric used to produce the product.This combination of analysis allows us to have a new conception procedure for the development of clothing product taking in account the comfort and the consumer’s expectation particularly in the men shirt development

Full textThe minimum requirement for any 3D (stereoscopic images) system is to guarantee visual comfort of viewers. Visual comfort is one of the three primary perceptual attributes of 3D QoE, which can be linked directly with technical parameters of a 3D system. Therefore, the goal of this thesis is to characterize objectively the impact of these parameters on human perception for stereoscopic quality monitoring. The first part of the thesis investigates whether visual attention of the viewers should be considered when designing an objective 3D quality metrics. First, the visual attention in 2D and 3D is compared using simple test patterns. The conclusions of this first experiment are validated using complex stimuli with crossed and uncrossed disparities. In addition, we explore the impact of visual discomfort caused by excessive disparities on visual attention. The second part of the thesis is dedicated to the design of an objective model of 3D video QoE, which is based on human perceptual thresholds and acceptability level. Additionally we explore the possibility to use the proposed model as a new subjective scale. For the validation of proposed model, subjective experiments with fully controlled still and moving stereoscopic images with different types of view asymmetries are conducted. The performance is evaluated by comparing objective predictions with subjective scores for various levels of view discrepancies which might provoke visual discomfort

Full textThermal comfort is a state of mind, which makes it a subjective sensation that is affected by personal differences. Thereby, the same environment will not satisfy everyone. But the main goal is to turn a work environment as comfortable as possible, to avoid work accidents and/or health problems. The objectives of this work were experimental measurements and calculation of the thermal environmental parameters (air temperature, air velocity, relative humidity and radiant heat), the characterization of the thermal environmental, according to the obtained data and the simulation of the human thermal response to the thermal environment, using a human thermal model. This way, the assessment of the thermal environment of an industrial plant in an experimental way, was achieved and the sensitivity of the human thermal model was tested. The measures of the environmental variables were made in 29 points in the plant, through appropriate instruments like globe thermometer, thermo anemometer and Data Logger. In order to assess the workers’ sensation, a thermal sensation questionnaire was developed. The calculation of the indexes Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) and Predicted Mean Vote and Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied (PMV/PPD) was performed with the resource of the Malchaire’s model and an Excel sheet. Regarding the tests to evaluate sensitivity of a human thermal model to environmental variables changes, three points of measures were used; the chosen points had similar environmental variables and different metabolic rate, and vice-versa. Results showed that the shift with the highest WBGT is the shift from 14h00 to 22h00 which confirms the answers given by workers in the questionnaire. All the workers are uncomfortable with the thermal environmental. The tests in human thermal model indicated that this can differentiate the thermal behavior of the different body parts, according to their adaptability. It was also possible to conclude that the temperature of the parts that can adapt tend to stabilization.
O conforto térmico é um estado da mente, o que o torna uma sensação subjectiva que é afetada pelas diferenças pessoais. Portanto, o mesmo ambiente não consegue satisfazer toda a gente. Mas o objetivo principal é tornar um ambiente de trabalho o mais confortável possivel, de modo a evitar acidentes e/ou problemas de saúde. Os objetivos deste trabalho foram a medição experimental e cálculo dos parametros térmicos ambientais (temperatura do ar, velocidade do ar, humidade relativa e temperatura radiante), a caracterização do ambiente térmico, de acordo com os dados obtidos e a simulação da resposta térmica humana ao ambinente térmico, com o uso de um modelo térmico humano. Deste modo, a avaliação do ambiente térmico de uma planta industrial de um modo experimental, foi alcançada e a sensibilidade do modelo térmico humano foi testada. As medições das variavéis ambientais foram feitas em 29 pontos da planta, através de equipamentos apropriados como o termómetro de globo, o termoanemómetro e o Data Logger. De modo a avaliar a sensação dos trabalhadores, um questionário de sensação térmica foi desenvolvido. O cálculo dos indíces Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) e Predicted Mean Vote and Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied (PMV/PPD) foi realizado com recurso ao modelo de Malchaire e a uma folha de Excel. No que concerne aos testes para avaliar a sensibilidade do modelo térmico humano às mudanças das variáveis ambientais, três pointos de medição foram usados; os pontos escolhidos tinham valores similares de variáveis ambientais e diferente metabolismo; e vice-versa. Os resultados indicam que o turno com maior valor de WBGT é o turno das 14h00 às 22h00, o que confirma as respostas dadas pelos trabalhadores no questionários. Todos os trabalhadores sentiam-se desconfortáveis com o ambiente térmico. Os testes ao modelo térmico humano indicaram que o mesmo consegue diferenciar o comportamento térmico das diferentes partes do corpo, de acordo com a sua adaptabilidade. Foi possível concluir que a temperatura das partes que se adaptam, tendem à estabilização.

In recent years, in order to enjoy people's love and habits of sports, we developed running and training suits with athletic functions and wearing comfort, and in various functions, ergonomics, comfortable engineering, and fabrics. The characteristics and application of the design make the clothing not only beautiful and functional, but also the basic element of the clothing - "comfort", enabling the wearer to exercise in a short period of time with high strength and long-term endurance. Exercise, able to stretch freely, and reduce the damage in sports, and in the process to enjoy and enjoy the health benefits of sports. The output of running suits and training suits are divided into clothes and trousers. In the first stage, physical testing is used to test clothing standards such as TORSO and microclimate testing. The pants are tested by gradient differential pressure. The second stage is tested. Real people actually wear performance evaluation and subjective and objective comfort assessment, and let the subjects wear self-made samples and commercial samples Decathlon, Mizuno, Under Armour for exercise performance comparison, running suits use blood lactic acid test, training suits with electromyography And muscle shock test, the evaluation results of self-made samples need to be better than the market sample. Through a series of static and dynamic standard tests, it proves that the running suits and training suits made by this seminar are in compliance with the standard of exercise and comfort, and allow consumers to exercise without losing a lot of sweat. The discomfort can also have the same athletic performance and comfort as a well-known commercial brand.

The functional requirements for military textiles are manifold and complex. It should be simultaneously concerted about the physical, environmental, camouflage, specific battlefield threats, flames, heat and flash, and the economic considerations. This study aims to discuss how the textile of air-vapor permeability influences the clothing micro-climate and subjective clothing comfort. Twenty-eight subjects were recruited to participate in this experiment. Two textiles (A and B) made by 50% cotton and 50% nylon with different weave and air-permeability of 35cm3/cm2/s (A) and from 28 to 32 cm3/cm2/s (B) separately were used in this study. Subjects were asked to wear two camouflages, A and B, randomly and running on the treadmill to complete a 3km jogging within 15 minutes. The measurements include the variances of skin temperature, cloth inside temperature, cloth inside humidity and subjective comfort feelings. Sensors were attached on the seven body parts including chest, axillary, upper back, and lower back, hip, inner thigh, and lateral calf and between clothe-inside layers. Subjective comfort rating was assessed by visual analog scales (VAS) before and after exercise. The results of this study indicated that varied air-permeability of textile cause significant differences in skin temperatures, cloth-inside temperature and cloth-inside humidity during running exercise (p<.05). In general, wearing A-textile has remarkably lower skin temperature and lower cloth-inside temperature than B-textile during exercise. It’s reasonable because sweat evaporation would lose heat and decrease skin temperature. A-textile has higher air-permeability than B-textile which leads to lower skin and cloth-inside temperature. For cloth-inside humidity, it didn’t have significant differences between two textiles (p>.05). Moreover, subjective comfort ratings revealed that wearing B textile have higher satisfactions than A (p<.05). The primary findings present that textile physical attributes don’t really relate with subjective wearing comfort feeling. Individuals comfort feeling should be an issue for textile consideration.

ABSTRACT Over the century, Pen has been standing at the important role for the purpose of sending messages and recording. Therefore, we have to look into seriously on how to design a pen which can feel comfortable when gripping on to avoid hand injuries such as muscle cramp, arthritis and so on. This institution study on the gripping area of a Pen, under various shapes, explores any obvious different on finger comfort level for writing. By changing the parameter of shape and material of the pen, we have conducted the experiments via samples and through reflect their level of hand aches and pains as reference. This study surveyed the discrepancy level of pains and tolerance in comparison with Taiwan and China respectively. The study applied both experiment and questionnaires at the same time, as a result shown: 1) Those samples using ordinary ball point pen written for approx. 10 mins, 90% of them felt pains and tiring, up to 100% when reach 60 mins. 2) Male gripping area is more widely than female. 3) Out of 3 types of finger tip texture, only round and hexagonal shape are obviously feel comfortable and especially the latter, added with medium harden material. 4) 3 types of gripping material, medium harden and soft material can have shown the great different when before and after used. Besides, there are not much affected even though gripping material have been improved. 5) After long duration grips on writting, majority of them will feel uncomfortable neither finger tip texture nor gripping material. 6) From the pained location against the affect of finger tip textue and gripping material, only thumb joint and center finger upper joint affected the most. 7) Different gender on gripping subject to round and hexagonal shape will affect but not gripping material. 8) Base on comfortable gripping issued, the best pen is assigned to hexagonal shape plus medium harden material.
