Acoustic insulation is an important requirement for the human life today, since noise affects the efficiency of day-to-day activities and even cause various health problems Materials based on fibrous structures show very good acoustic insulation properties, which however strongly depends on the type of structures used. The present paper reports the qualitative analysis of the acoustic insulation behavior of var...
In this work, the influence of various structural and process parameters (such as linear density of core and cover and draw ratio) on the mechanical behaviour of elastane yarn has been thoroughly investigated. According to the experimental results, elastane yarns with high linear density core and cover and produced using higher draw ratio showed the best mechanical properties in terms of both strength and exten...
Fibrous materials are finding widespread applications in diversified areas, starting from clothing sector to medical fields, various structural and infrastructural applications of civil engineering, aerospace industries and even for energy harvesting and storage applications. In this paper, the results of various research activities conducted by the Fibrous Materials Research Group (FMRG), University of Minho t...
