We propose a novel approach to simulating the formation and evolution of stains on cloths in motion. We accurately capture the diffusion of a pigmented solution over a complex knitted or woven fabric through homogenization of its inhomogeneous and/or anisotropic properties into bulk anisotropic diffusion tensors. Secondary effects such as absorption, adsorption and evaporation are also accounted for through physically-based modeling. Finally, the influence of the cloth motion on the shape and evolution of the stain is captured by evaluating the inertial (e.g., centrifugal and Coriolis) forces experienced by the solution. The governing equations of motion are integrated in time directly on a deforming triangle mesh discretizing the inelastic cloth for efficiency and robustness. The deformation of the cloth can be precomputed or integrated through simplified two-way coupling, by using off-the-shell cloth simulations. Finally, numerical experiments demonstrate the plausibility of our results in practical applications by reproducing the usual shape and behavior of stains on various fabrics.

The emergence of flexible fabric-based pneumatic actuators (FPAs) with pre-programmable motion capabilities, enhanced security and versatile interaction features significantly advances the construction of sophisticated soft robotic systems, owing to their enhanced security and versatile interaction features. Despite these promising attributes, the commercial viability of FPA products faces a considerable amount of challenges, primarily stemming from the scarcity of highly deformable fabric structures and the availability of industrial fabrication approaches. Taking inspiration from the anisotropic nature of lobster antennae, we propose a scalable and economical strategy to fabricate functional FPAs using nonwoven fabric material with superior mechanical anisotropy.

Clothing fit and pressure comfort play important role in clothing comfort, especially in medical body sculpting clothing (MBSC). In the present study, different body movements (forward bending, side bending, and twisting) were adopted to simulate and investigate the biomechanical stress distribution of the human body with three kinds of porosity inelastic MBSCs through the finite element analysis method. The elastic modulus of the investigated MBSCs was also measured by means of tensile testing.

This paper provides a comprehensive understanding of the amplitude- and frequency-dependent characteristics of rubber springs. The dynamic nonlinear inelasticity of rubber is a key academic problem for continuum mechanics and a bottleneck problem for the practical use of rubber structures. Despite intensive efforts witnessed in industrial applications, it still demands an unambiguous constitutive model for dynamic nonlinear inelasticity, which is known as the Payne effect.

The multifunctional photoelectronic devices are recently attracting much more attention due to their potential enlarged applications. The flexible stretchable electrothermally/photothermally dual-driven heaters for all-weather wearable thermal management are presented in this work with nano-embedded hierarchical CuS-coated PET fabrics. Herein, the hierarchical nano-embedded CuS film is fabricated via a simple chemical bath method for high electrical conductivity and highly efficient inelastic collision of electro/photo-generated carriers.

Background: Compression is a common therapy for management of chronic disease, including oedema of the lower limb. Modern compression interventions exert pressure on the lower limb through use of one or more materials which exert pressure against the limb over time. Where these materials are textiles, they range from elastic to inelastic, and are produced using knitting, weaving, or other textile technologies which can be manipulated to control performance properties.
