  2. 1. Swedish Fashion 1930–1960 : Rethinking the Swedish Textile and Clothing Industry

    Author : Ulrika Kyaga; Klas Nyberg; Caroline Evans; Marie Riegels Melchior; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; fashion production; fashion history; Swedish fashion; textile and clothing industry; clothing production; symbolic production; national fashion; field of fashion; Swedish fashion identity; modevetenskap; Fashion Studies;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to explore the development of Swedish fashion between 1930 and 1960 by examining the textile and clothing industry from the wider perspective of fashion production. It was during this period that Sweden was transformed into a leading industrial nation, which laid the foundation for increased prosperity in the post-war period. READ MORE

  4. 2. Evaluation of the Performances of Electrically Heated Clothing

    Author : Faming Wang; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrically heated vest EHV ; heating efficiency; cold weather clothing; air velocity; clothing combination; thermal resistance; air temperature;

    Abstract : Cold weather garments are necessary for people who are exposed to cold environments (below -5 °C). The weight and bulkiness of such a cold weather clothing ensemble may limit human activity and reduce the productivity. In order to solve these problems, a slim garment with a built-in heating element could be useful. READ MORE

  5. 3. Intermediation in Business Networks: A Case Study in the Textile and Clothing Industry

    Author : Viktoria Sundquist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; textile; channel; clothing; industrial network; intermediation; intermediaries;

    Abstract : Intermediation is a central concept in the marketing channel literature where it is used for analyzing how specific firms, intermediaries, connect producers and users. It is argued that intermediation is primarily about increasing transaction efficiency when intermediaries undertake functions for closing the gap between producer stocks and consumer assortments, thus bridging discrepancies in time and place between supply and demand.

  6. 4. Clothing Evaporative Resistance: Its Measurements and Application in Prediction of Heat Strain

    Author : Faming Wang; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal manikin; clothing ensemble; evaporative resistance; localised evaporative resistance; thermophysiological response; heat stress; heat strain; the Predicted Heat Strain PHS model;

    Abstract : Clothing evaporative resistance is one of the most important inputs for both the modelling and for standards dealing with thermal comfort and heat stress. It might be determined on guarded hotplates, on sweating manikins or even on human subjects. READ MORE

  7. 5. Remake: Design Foundations

    Author : Anna Lidström; Lars Hallnäs; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; waste; surplus; redesign; remake; design; method; clothing;

    Abstract : leftovers, waste, and surplus generated by increasing production and consumption of material goods. Their problem is not new, and over the last decade the search for a solution has given rise to various theories about and technologies for resource recovery and waste management. READ MORE
