Abstract:
Trying virtual garments on a virtual body has become widespread in the design industry as a result of 3D computer-aided design (CAD) system and progress in body measurement systems. Spending less time and cost compared to traditional methods of garment design is the main benefit of design software development. Moreover, it leads to improved garment fitting on the body which fulfills customer desires. In the present study, a parametric graphical method was utilized to develop a 3D virtual mannequin for the pregnancy period. The former, the 3D adaptive mannequin model was predicted based on a woman’s weight by analyzing body morphology evolution of a pregnant woman. The mannequin was verified by the results of another pregnant body. Then, the developed mannequin based on weight gain during maternity was applied to design a garment block pattern. The virtual try-on of the developed garment block pattern suggested that it was well-fitted on the 3D virtual mannequin while two armpit darts and two elastic seams were allocated. Hence, the developed garment block pattern will be used to make a personalized protective garment in our future work using an electromagnetic shielding woven fabric formerly manufactured by our group.

Abstract:
Distortions are inevitable when flattening is applied to an irregular surface. This study presents a meshing energy model and evaluates the energy variation between the 3D designed surface and the 2D flattened pattern in order to minimize the energy that arises from the development process. Base on expert knowledge, constraint optimization methods are used to find the unique pattern in its minimum deformation. This method is applied via simulation to some garment examples. Taking design and manufacturing conditions into consideration, the designed garments are flattened into patterns which have the least energy and area variation from the 3D designs.

Abstract:
This contribution deals with the new trends related to the digitalization in garment engineering. More than ten years ago can be found complaints of clothing companies on the lack of effective CAD software to design garments directly in 3D and to provide pattern designer tools for shape modelling and simulation of cloth behavior. Today, with a mass customization, e-commerce, advances in virtual reality applications, the virtual garment development is strongly desired in order to optimize apparel industry’s design and development processes. To survive in global competitive market, garment manufacturers are forced to transform their manufacturing processes toward, having a more flexible production system to meet the rapid changes in the global market, and started the transition to a new technological level through digitalization advances and challenges of Industry 4.0. Described are the possibilities for exploiting advances in digitization in garment engineering through virtual prototyping and production of smart clothing.

Abstract:
The usage of innovative technologies has become one of the most widespread ways of diversifying the current supply of clothing and footwear products. Therefore, using the 3D printing technologies in the garment production is a remarkable example of the symbiosis of creativity and technology, which creates unusual and fashionable clothing pieces. Although the 3D printing technology is a relatively new technology and allows creating unique garments it must not neglect important features of clothing products such as cost-accessibility, comfort and aesthetic appearance. The research on these aspects is prior to implement this technology in the manufacturing process. The study includes the analysis of the current 3D printing technologies which are used for obtaining three-dimensional objects, the current directions of implementing this technology in the industry, as well as the opportunities of applying this technology in the process of clothing’s creation. Therefore, this paper concludes the study with the creation of a clothing product – a blouse for women, which is including a 3D printed part confirming this way the possibility of creation of clothing products, which would integrate innovative elements which were obtained by implementing the advanced technology of additive manufacturing.

Abstract:
The subject of this paper is analysis and assessment of foreign direct investment (FDI) as made by transnational corporations in the textile, garment, and leather industry on a world economic scale under conditions of globalization. Significant changes are occurring in the sector and industry structure of global FDI. In terms of the three sectors of the economy, a long-term shift of FDI to the service sector at a cost to investments in manufacturing may be seen. Foreign investments are being made in the textile, garment, and leather industry. They are growing in the long term. However, the dynamics of the FDI streams flowing to this industry is one of the lowest in manufacturing. Over the long term (1990-2007), the share of the textile, garment, and leather industry in global FDI stock decreased from 1.5% to 0.6% in 2007. In spite of the labour-intensive character of this industry, in their bulk, the FDI are destined to the highly developed countries.

Introduction. Garment enterprises belong to the objects of light industry of Ukraine. Fires that occur at such enterprises, lead to damage of production equipment, to destructions and deformations of building structures, to destruction of finished products and raw materials and to injuries and deaths of the peoples. Elimination of fires at garment enterprises is difficult, and with large areas of combustion, this requires the involvement of a large number of forces and means. Therefore, the urgent task is to prevent fires, which will minimize human and material losses.Purpose . is to substantiate the need to increase the effectiveness of fire protection of garment industry enterprises by improving the methods, principles, technical solutions aimed at preventing the occurrence and spread of fires.Methods. The main task of the garment industry is to provide the population with a wide range of clothing and other textiles. Together with that, due to the large number of staff working in such enterprises, the process of making clothes must be fire protected. A number of studies are devoted to the study of fire danger, including garment enterprises, but the issues of taking into account fire risk factors that arise at all stages of the production process, where high-performance equipment, semi-automatic machines, computer-aided clothing designing systems, mechanized workplaces, production lines is not studied. The issue of fire danger of textile manufacturing technology is also insufficiently studied. In order to perceive the process of fire it is necessary to take into account the most common causes of fires, which include: internal and fire regulations violation, disregard for the rules of operation of electrical equipment and electrical networks, violation of technological modes.Results.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references.<br>Industrial Relations theory presents a dualism of approaches to explanation, that is of Subjective and Objective paradigms of explanation. Utilising Giddensian Structuration theory, a Structuration theory of industrial relations is developed and utilised to bridge the epistemological divide. Structuration theory is then utilised to establish the ontological character of collective bargaining for three regions of the South African Garment Manufacturing Industry. This 'character' is shown to be encapsulated in the notion of maintaining a high level of managerial prerogative. The managerial prerogative has been maintained and perpetuated by the lack of militancy on the part of the Unions, and an explanation of the observed lack of militancy is provided by the examination of action around the bargaining in the respective industrial councils.

Damoah, Obi Berko Obeng. "The export behaviour of small and medium-sized manufacturing firms : evidence from the garment and textile industry of Ghana." Thesis, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/10369/2748.

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to examine why the majority of SMEs from the garment and textile sub-sector decide to remain focused on the domestic market, while few choose to sell a proportion of their goods abroad, even though they face similar market conditions and operate in the same location. A variety of explanations to this problem exist in the literature examining the export behaviour of small businesses. However, these explanations are inconclusive and restricted in geographic scope (e.g. studies from the USA, Europe, and the United Kingdom). Because geographic contexts are different it is uncertain whether or not the recommendations based on studies from western countries can be implemented within the Ghanaian economy. As a result, a research gap exists with regard to understanding the export behaviour of SMEs from Ghana. Following the recognition of a gap in the literature, this thesis seeks to shed light on the issue from the Ghanaian context. The thesis proposes an integrated theoretical framework, developed from an analysis of the extant literature review, to address an explanation why some SMEs export and others do not. The proposed framework consists of a synthesised integration of the following theoretical perspectives: the resource-based view of the firm; stage theory; network theory, international entrepreneurship theory; and contingency theory. The key assumption underlying the integrated framework is that SME export behaviour represents a complex event, and therefore no single theoretical framework is robust enough to explain the phenomenon in detail. In addition, as none of the theoretical frameworks are without weakness it is argued their integration offsets the weaknesses of each, thereby offering a deeper explanation of the factors underlying export behaviour. Empirically, the thesis drawing on a set of quantitative data and more qualitative interviews concerns the behaviour of both small and medium-sized exporting and non-exporting firms from the garment and textile manufacturing sector in Ghana. An analysis of this data is undertaken to empirically validate the proposed theoretical integrated framework. The quantitative methods involve regression analysis, and the qualitative analysis is based on a systematic content review of the data emanating from the interview data. The results from the empirical analysis suggest that the proposed integrated framework matches well with the empirical data. Overall, firm size, sector, workforce education levels, and participation in international and domestic business networks are found to be the key drivers explaining why some SMEs from Ghana choose to export, while majority of others remained focused on the domestic market. Based on the findings it is concluded that SME owner-managers in Ghana seeking to export should invest in the development of both domestic and international networks as a means of improving their access to international markets. From a policy perspective it is recommended that the government of Ghana should provide further support to facilitate the activities of industrial associations in Ghana, since their interaction and network development with indigenous firms has been shown to be of importance in helping SMEs achieve export success.

Abstract:
This study seeks to develop novel multi-material and multi-layer pads that are comfortable to wear and effective in protecting body parts that are subject to blunt impact. The proposed body protection pad will address a safety issue prominent in elderly people, industry workers, law enforcement/military personnel, and sport players. Among the population of those people, blunt impact due to various causes such as falls, bullets, and blast waves reduce quality of life, increase the possibility of early death, and cause extremely high medical costs to incur. Protector pads represent a promising strategy for reducing impact force and preventing injuries in high-risk individuals. However, clinical efficacy has been limited by poor user compliance. Currently available protectors are made of either hard shells or soft thick pads. Some of them are made of Non-Newtonian materials that are believed to be very efficient but their effectiveness hasn’t been proved yet. Even though some available protectors can be effective if worn, most people who need protection are reluctant to wear bulky and heavy garments or rigid shells. Therefore, it is important to develop new body protectors that best combine each individual’s requirements of wearing comfort (flexible, light weight), ease of fitting (customized), ensured protection, and cost-effectiveness. The authors brought up many different design ideas and the most promising ones were selected and their effectiveness is investigated in detail. One of those pads utilizes dome shape top layer and thin fabric membrane component, such as Kevlar, that is very strong in tension but flexible in bending. Such design will make the pads excellent in dissipating shock energy and converting normal shock force to lateral direction to minimize the shock force transmitted to the body parts. Through computational simulations, these pads were proved to be very flexible in bending and torsion while strong and rigid in compression. In addition, suitable materials were identified, and it has been verified that such materials can be used to design a viable product(s) that is thin, light, and flexible for wearing comfort but strong in normal impact direction to protect the body. This paper reports a parametric study using computational analyses (finite element analyses) conducted for dome-shaped structures with various materials such as thermoplastic polyurethane (Ninjaflex® and Semiflex®), polyethylene, resin polyester, polylactic acid (PLA), resin epoxy, epoxy S-glass, and epoxy E-glass. Parametric 3D CAD models of the dome-shape structures were created with various combinations of layers such as dome shell only, dome with fabric (such as Kevlar) membrane, dome with fabric membrane and solid filler, and dome with fillers of auxetic structure. Then, key structural characteristics of protectors such as normal (compression), bending, and torsional stiffness were evaluated through static analyses of FEA models. Then, impact/shock analyses were conducted using multiphysics finite-element-analysis models to validate the results obtained from the static analyses. Advanced additive manufacturing techniques (3D printers) were used to build prototypes of the pads for tests. Dimensions and materials of the multi-layer pads are optimized for light weight and flexibility while keeping excellent shock absorption capability. The mechanism for ideal input force distribution or shunting are explained and suggested for designing protectors using various combinations of materials and layers to reduce the risk of injury. The results show that the dome-shape structure can be an effective component of optimized body protection pads using a combination of various materials.
