Impact of Brightness on Glare Perception when Using Shading Fabrics

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann

Access to daylight and views out are usually recognized as beneficial to occupant comfort at the workplace. Simultaneously, discomfort glare due to direct sunlight is a known source of occupant dissatisfaction. Shading fabrics with low openness factor have ...

Influence of depositional fabric on mechanical properties of naturally deposited sands

Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

Fabric characteristics and shear deformation behaviour were analysed in four intact small-scale samples, including two disturbed and two undisturbed samples of naturally deposited sand from a shoal in the San Francisco Bay. Triaxial compression tests were ...

Nano-sized iron oxides supported on polyester textile to remove fluoroquinolones in hospital wastewater

Sami Rtimi

In this study, we examined the removal kinetics of two fluoroquinolones (FQs), flumequine (FLU) and ciprofloxacin (CIP), in synthetic wastewater (SWW) and real hospital wastewater (RHW) using FeOx thin films, peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and visible light. Nano ...

Assessment of capillary phenomena in liquid composite molding

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Feyza Karasu Kiliç, Cem Tekin

The interplay between capillary and viscous forces plays a significant role for optimal part quality in fiber-reinforced composites manufactured by Liquid Composite Molding (LCM); these are however difficult to analyze during flow. Two approaches are propo ...

In-plane permeability distribution mapping of isotropic mats using flow front detection

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Damiano Salvatori

In-plane permeability of textile fabrics is often characterized by one-dimensional rectilinear flow experiments, displaying limitations related to potential race-tracking effects and the need to run experiments at several fiber volume fractions. We propose ...

Permeability of textile fabrics with spherical inclusions

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar

We investigated the effect of rigid spherical inclusions such as microcapsules and fillers on the permeability of fabrics by using glass beads as model inclusions. Beads with a range of diameters (40-800 mu m) and volume fractions (2.5-10%) were sieved bet ...

Comparison of HIPIMS sputtered Ag- and Cu-surfaces leading to accelerated bacterial inactivation in the dark

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi

Recently, compact uniform and adhesive films of Ag and Cu have been prepared by DC-magnetron sputtering (DC), pulsed DC magnetron sputtering (DCP) and high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS). This study reports the HIPIMS deposition for Ag and Cu ...

Structural Timber Fabric: Applying Textile Principles on Building Scale

Yves Weinand, Markus Hudert

Textiles are interesting from both a structural and an architectural point of view. Their patterns and textures, created by the interworking of yarn elements, are not only highly appealing on an aesthetical level, they also possess load bearing qualities. ...

Preparation, testing and performance of a TiO2/polyester photocatalyst for the degradation of gaseous methanol

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi

TiO2 modified polyester photocatalysts were prepared by immersion. drying and curing of the polyester in TiO2 containing suspensions under different experimental conditions. The structure of TiO2 layers on the polyester varied according to the time of imme ...

Self-Cleaning cotton textiles surfaces modified by photoactive SiO2/TiO2 coating

Lioubov Kiwi, Danièle Laub

The photocatalytic activity of TiO2–SiO2-coated cotton textiles was investigated through the self-cleaning of red wine stains. It was shown that a TiO2–SiO2 species could be produced at temperatures of 100 °C with acceptable photo-activity on non-heat resi ...

L'espace contre l'architecture : le cas van Doesburg (analyse des contre-constructions)

Grégory Azar

This research work analyses Theo van Doesburg's Counter-constructions presented in Paris in 1923 at the "L'Effort Moderne" exhibition. These Counter-constructions stand as icons of the Modern Movement due to their role as precursors of a new "boundless" sp ...
