The objective of this study is to examine the relationships between factors connected to the capability aspects of the female working on the digital platform and the performance-sustainability of that employment. There are selected 3 groups of factors: first, professional learning and digital skills and capabilities of digital female workers; second, entrepreneurial learning and orientation as a personal and corporate precondition for successful work online on a platform, and third group of factors connected to the legal ecosystem issues, tax, social protection, and labour relations as important frameworks to digital work sustainability. The dependent variable is defined as females from textile and fashion design sub-sectors working online on the platform's sustainability, treated as performance. Empirical research with 396 female participants working online on platforms connected to the jobs, tasks, and freelancing from textile, fashion design, and other textile sub-sectors was provided in Serbia in 2022. They have by a five-level Likert scale evaluated the level of the factors and their 16 statements' impact on the dependent variable. All three independent variables do exhibit a positive relationship with the dependent one. The most significant influence has the professional and digital skills and capabilities of female workers or their corporations. The paper’s findings can serve to remind female digital workers that they cannot neglect the element of entrepreneurial capabilities and digital and professional skills in their digital activities. The results can be useful for the government to enforce consistent, dynamic, and adjusted taxation, social protection, incentives, and employment regulations for textile female digital workers and all others in boosting employment within new flexible patterns and technologies. The research is further shown relative to the SDGs on gender equality, digital divide issues, and pillars of social, economic, and environmental sustainability. The research model for this study was drawn from the literature on digitalization, work flexibility, institutional, financial and social theory and contributes to the current literature.

This research aims to quantify the linear and non-linear relationship between debt and economic growth in selected developing economies. Based on theoretical arguments and annual data considerations in modelling the debt and growth as a complex relationship across countries, our panel methodology is based on the fixed effect technique. Our core finding indicates that government debt lowers the GDP in selected developing economies. We also find that the urban population is a key factor that improves economic growth. Moreover, government expenditures on health and industrialization are helpful to enhance the growth of the economies. Our study also suggests increased exports, industrial development, and investment in education for growth. We also propose certain supporting strategies to reduce the adverse effects of debt-growth relation in the considered economies. Given developing economies’ status, the prerequisite for broad, dynamic and rule-based debt policy is of paramount importance, ensuring the factual choices among numerous possibilities, addressing financial constraints and ensuring intergenerational welfare impact.

Continuous research is necessary for the field of cultural heritage conservation to maintain up-to-date knowledge regarding new treatments and methods for preserving artefacts. Cultural heritage conservation is not only necessary for preserving the memory of our predecessors but is also meaningful for future generations. History museums around the world contain impressive collections of heritage textiles in various stages of degradation. The main method of preservation is maintaining the objects a microclimate to limit degradation by adjusting the temperature, humidity, and brightness of the rooms in which they are exposed or stored. Biodegradation is influenced by the presence of microorganisms, the availability of oxygen, temperature, humidity, light, and chemical factors (pH, electrolytes, etc.). This paper aims to provide scientific information on how heritage textiles have been studied and characterized, as well as the methods of preservation reported in the literature. Particular attention is being paid to nanomaterials, as they have been intensively studied for various applications and demonstrated to exhibit antimicrobial effects, which can be utilized to treat heritage objects and slow down degradation processes.

Peripheral nerve lesions represent debilitating conditions that determine sensitive, motor and associated psychosocial losses, deeply and severely affecting the quality of life. Despite adequate microsurgical repair, functional results are variable and often dissatisfying. This study aimed to analyse and discuss peripheral nerve lesion cases from our clinic, involving the upper limb, an anatomical segment with impactful functional importance. We followed the distribution of nerve lesions throughout a three-year period, describing the patients’ characteristics and the therapeutic protocols. Furthermore, we reviewed the relevant literature to identify potential therapeutic strategies that may help optimize functional results. In the presented clinical study, most of the patients benefited from direct microsurgical repair of the nerve injury. However, we had a series of cases of nerve defects that could not be approached with primary repair. When a nerve cannot be repaired by direct neurorrhaphy, there are different options for bridging the nerve gap, each with its indications and advantages. Autografts still represent the gold standard in treating nerve gaps, but other procedures, such as vascularized nerve grafting, nerve conduits, allografts and nerve transfers, can be successfully used in some cases. The current focus in the field is the development of nerve conduits. Textile technologies represent a promising field in creating nerve conduits, given the ease of the manufacturing process, the affordable production cost and good mechanical properties.

The increase in the incidence of gastric and colorectal cancer in developed or developing countries led to the need to improve oncological surgery. Oncological surgery of the digestive tract translates in most cases into resection and anastomosis. Using a mechanical suturing device is no longer considered something revolutionary. However, the technology behind new instruments that helps surgeons perform operations changed over time. The main purpose of perfecting these devices is to execute a safer suture or anastomosis and shorten the intraoperative time. In this study, we made a short review of the principles behind intestinal and skin staplers, and the advantages and disadvantages of these tools as an alternative to manual suturing using textile materials. We also described the use of cyanoacrylate as an adhesive and sealant.

The traditional strategy in garment businesses is confronting a considerable measure of issues, for example, longer Production lead time, high work, supply sought after, high texture waste, longer production time and ailing in the utilization of assets. ABC clothing company is experiencing the previously mentioned issues. Enhancing efficiency through quantitative research strategies and distinctive lean assembling devices, for example, the institutionalization of the work process, line adjusting, and 5S were utilized to distinguish the issues and to address the arrangements. By understanding the real issue, the use of these lean assembling devices and their advantages were inspected. Earlier it was around 210 items for each day once in the day of actualizing the lean tools it was around 280 every day. The efficiency has increased by 25%. In like manner, the adjusting balancing loss was decreased by 35%. The implication of this investigation can give the entire practical answer to the usage of lean tools, minimization of waste and viable use of the asset in a piece of the garment industry for enhancing efficiency.

Exploring the mechanism of user donation and information sharing behaviour in textile crowdfunding under the social network environment provides the theoretical basis for researching the behaviour of users and suggestions for the operation and management of textile crowdfunding platform. Based on the grounded theory, it appeared that there were only a few studies examining the empirical relation between the two constructs, particularly in textile crowdfunding. The study investigated 35 users with semi-structured interviews. Nvivo11 qualitative analysis software was used to encode and analyse the interview data. The attribution theory was used to construct the model of influencing factors of textile crowdfunding user donation and information-sharing behaviour and the theoretical saturation test of the coded result. This study divided the influencing factors of textile crowdfunding user donation and information-sharing behaviour into trait attribution and situation attribution and extracted eight main categories that affect user participation behaviour. Emotional factors, interpersonal relationships, and perceived risks are the key factors affecting participants' donation and information sharing. In addition, the study found that compared with the behaviour of donating for textile crowdfunding projects, the willingness of user information sharing behaviour was low.

In this study, it was aimed to produce nanofibers from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymer using natural solvents such as rose water, rose extract and mate plant extract by the environmentally friendly electrospinning or green electrospinning technique in other words and it was also aimed to investigate the morphological properties of produced nanofibers. For this purpose, nanofibers having 7 different morphologies were produced from 4% PVA aqueous solutions. The morphologies of the produced nanofibers were analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). As a result of these analyses, it was observed that uniform nanofiber morphology was formed in nanofiber productions made with distilled water, while in the others, dense bead structure was formed at low voltages and nanofiber morphology with reduced bead amount at high voltages was observed. In all electrospinning experiments, it was observed that the nanofibers were randomly collected on the collector plate. It was observed that the nanofibers obtained from the solutions prepared from solvents other than distilled water, especially the one from the mate plant extract, had a low bead structure and a smooth morphology. These results showed that environmentally friendly nanofibers can be produced from natural solvents by electrospinning technique and their morphological properties can be improved via modification in process conditions. It is thought that the nanofibers produced within the scope of the study are candidate materials especially for health, hygiene and food applications since they are produced in pure properties without using any other additives.

Hybrid composites have gained exceptional interest from researchers and industry sectors in the last couple of decades with an aim to improve existing and/or develop new composites to cater for a wide variety of applications. In this research, hybrid composites utilizing glass fibre combined with textile hard waste were fabricated. A control sample and 7 hybrid composite samples including glass-polyester hard waste, glass-mercerized cotton hard waste and glass-cotton hard waste were developed as part of this study. Density, tensile strength and thermal conductivity of all developed samples and that of a commercial composite (purchased from the market) were measured. The results revealed that the control sample developed at the lab scale showed similar or higher values of density, tensile properties and thermal conductivity. Hybrid composites based on unmercerized and mercerized cotton showed very low tensile properties and similar conductivity, so they are not suitable for sunshade application. On the other hand, a composite made from polyester provided with highest tensile properties amongst all the hybrid composites but was still quite lower than a commercial sample. Polyester hybrid composite has enhanced thermal insulation properties suggesting that it has the potential to replace the existing composite, but a compromise needs to be made between the physical and thermal properties of the sunshade.

On the other hand, a composite made from\u0000polyester provided with highest tensile properties amongst all the hybrid composites but was still quite lower than a\u0000commercial sample. Polyester hybrid composite has enhanced thermal insulation properties suggesting that it has the\u0000potential to replace the existing composite, but a compromise needs to be made between the physical and thermal\u0000properties of the sunshade.","PeriodicalId":13638,"journal":{"name":"Industria Textila","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48208103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
This study investigated the fabric resistance of three-dimensional (3D) woven fibreglass composites generated by impactors of three shapes, i.e., hemispherical, conical, and ogival, on four types of composite structures. Composites were fabricated using the hand lay-up technique. Crimp and mechanical impact resistance tests were carried out in accordance with ASTM D2444 standards and ASTM D3883-04, respectively. The four-floating interlocked (4FLL) yielded the strongest fabric damage tolerance for all the three types of impactors’ shapes with 6.3 kN for the hemispherical shape, 4 kN for the conically shaped, and 3.8 kN for the ogival shape. Additionally, the 4FLL generated a fabric crimp of 3.5% and 2.8% on both fabric directions. The post-impact damage showed that the ogival shape impactor penetrated samples of woven composites better than the conical and hemispherical shapes.
