Fibers and fabrics are currently often used as a reinforcing element in the production of various composite materials, which are often used in mechanical engineering and in the construction sector. A separate chapter is devoted to textile reinforcing materials.
Environmental problems in textile production are mainly related to the dyeing process and the chemical treatment of fabrics and fibers. Some aspects of textile dyeing and wastewater treatment processes are also discussed in this publication.
The research results and real engineering developments in the field of modern technical textiles are presented to readers in this contribution. Smart textile, specific features of fabrics based on conductive polymers, use of special yarn coating for functionalisation of knitted fabric, the improvement of the textile thermal isolation properties, and composite reinforcing by textile materials are some topics of this book.
This volume of "International Journal of Engineering Research in Africa" collects peer-reviewed manuscripts reflecting the research results in the fields of composite materials with biobased reinforcements, the technology of hydroforming of sheet metal, power engineering and power control, technologies of the smart grid and microgrid, wastewater treatment, building materials and geotechnical engineering, fluid mechanics and heat transfer in the solar air heating system. The majority of engineers, academics, and students majoring in engineering science will appreciate this collection.
This volume of papers introduces readers to the latest research and achievements from the 5th World Sustainable Construction Conference (WSCC 2021, 15th and 16th October 2021, online). Collected articles present scientific research and engineering design results in the area of building materials and advanced technologies for roads and civil constructions.
The volume will be helpful and exciting for many engineers and researchers engaged in developing and researching materials in construction. This volume contains selected peer-reviewed full text papers presented at the 13th International Conference on Contemporary Problems of Architecture and Construction (ICCPAC), October 6-8, 2021, Yerevan, Armenia.
The 4th International Conference on Bio-Based Building Materials (ICBBM 2021, 16-18 June 2021, Barcelona, Spain) has become established as a leading forum of Scientists across a broad range of disciplines related to the application of bio-based composites and natural materials in modern construction practice.
