Both silkworm cocoons and wild silkworm cocoons have excellent mechanical properties, as a protective barrier against environmental damage and attack by natural predators. In particular, this multilayer porous structure can be exceptionally tough to enhance the chance of survival for pupas while supporting their metabolic activity. Here, a fractional derivative is defined through the variational iteration method, and its application to explaining the outstanding thermal protection of insulation clothings with cocoon-like porous structure is elucidated. The fractal hierarchic structure of insulation clothings makes human body mathematically adapted for extreme temperature environment.

Silkworm cocoon has a complex hierarchic structure with discontinuity. In this paper, heat transfer through the silkworm cocoon is studied using fractal theory. The fractal approach has been successfully applied to explain the fascinating phenomenon of cocoon survival under extreme temperature environment. A better understanding of heat transfer mechanisms for the cocoon could be beneficial to the design of biomimetic clothes for special applications.
