  2. 1. Interactive Textile Structures : Creating Multifunctional Textiles based on Smart Materials

    Author : Lena Berglin; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; textile actuators; conductive textiles; smart textiles; textile design; textile engineering; textile sensors; Design; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

    Abstract : Textiles of today are materials with applications in almost all our activities. We wear clothes all the time and we are surrounded with textiles in almost all our environments. The integration of multifunctional values in such a common material has become a special area of interest in recent years. READ MORE

  5. 3. Interactive Textile Structures

    Author : Lena Berglin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the area of smart textile and wearable computing. Smart or Interactive Textiles area generic terms for textile materials and products that in some nontrivial sense are self-active. Smart Textiles represents generation of high-tech, functional textile materials and products. An example of that is wearable computing. READ MORE

  6. 4. Conjugated Polymer-based Conductive Fibers for Smart Textile Applications

    Author : Tariq Bashir; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electro-active fibers; poly 3; 4-ethylenedioxythiophene PEDOT ; viscose; polyester; chemical vapor deposition CVD process; electrical characterizations; smart textiles; stretch sensor; Organic Electronics; Smart Textiles; textile yarns; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

    Abstract : Electrically conductive or electro-active fibers are the key components of smart and interactive textiles, which could be used in medical, sports, energy, and military applications in the near future. The functionalization of high-performance textile yarns/fibers with conjugated polymers can produce conductive fibers with better electro-mechanical properties, which is difficult with commonly used spinning techniques.
