To investigate the effect of the verge line on the appearance of brassieres, the difference in the verge lines of individuals with the same brassiere size was examined. A new method for designing a brassiere was proposed, taking into account the indi...

The objective of this study was to develop an original anti-bacterial material for skin wound healing. Collagen-chitosan nanofibrous membranes were fabricated by electrospinning. The morphology, tensile strength and contact angle of the membranes wer...

Although shoes are conventionally chosen based on the size indicated on the label, it is also possible to accurately gauge foot size using a technique known as morphometry to measure the three-dimensional shape of feet in a state of rest. However, be...

A new electronic tester consisting of capacitive sensors and optical sensors is now introduced into raw silk inspection. Compared with the traditional seriplane test, the quality indices change a lot. In assessing the yarn evenness, the electronic te...

In this research, a mathematic model for predicting the average pressure at the lower leg caused by socks has been built. This research establishes a relationship between the average pressure of socks, the potential energy of fabrics and the shape of...

Cotton fabric is treated with a chicken-feather protein derivative auxiliary (named WLS-10) and with a self-made linking cationic agent (named WLS), respectively. WLS-10 was prepared with chicken-feather protein and WLS. The salt-free reactive dyeing...

Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a blind source separation technique that has been broadly used in signal and image separation. In order to verify the feasibility of ICA algorithms which will be used for the detection of fabric defect, four ki...

An Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) method to analyze the similarities of protein sequences is proposed. The EMD method was used to divide a signal sequence converted from a protein sequence into a group of well-behaved Intrinsic Mode Functions (IM...

Portable health monitoring device could benefit the life quality of patients as well as decreasing health care costs. Monitoring Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Impedance Cardiography (ICG) simultaneously can help evaluate cardiovascular disease comprehe...

Image registration is a vital research branch in medical image processing and analysis. In this paper, we proposed a new framework for rigid medical image registration. It can also be regarded as a pre-processing of non-rigid image registration algor...

The method of extracting robust feature sets from an image is a crucial issue for the areas of computer vision and pattern recognition. The nature of real data is a very high dimensional data. However, the hidden structure can be well characterized b...

At present, bra enterprises usually use under bust girth and bust differences to design bra pattern. These kind of bras do not consider the differences of breast shapes and therefore cannot not satisfy the demands of fit and comfort of different brea...

To construct a litchi harvesting robot, the first key part is the machine vision system which is used to recognize ripe litchi clusters and their main fruit bearing branch. It selects and locates picking points. Hence, in order to establish a thresho...

The paper develops a novel method to explore a suitable scanning installation to reduce deformation effect of foam cups under different moulding conditions, and proposes a quantitative assessment index for the geometric shape of foam cups via non-con...

Extraordinary mechanical properties in biological composites come from their hierarchical structures and are well seen in bones, teeth, shells etc. Nature inspired knowledge could certainly help in the design of new nanostructured materials. The curr...
