Fabric Design

Applications of Piezo jacquard and CAD technology in warp-knitting have provided traditional jacquard fabrics with the possibility of innovating the structure design. Research on innovative design and fabrication is conducted aiming at knitting jacquard vamp fabric with the double-colour pitting effect on a technical back. By utilising Piezoelectric jacquard’s performance of displacing both underlapping and overlapping, new structures are formed, such as mesh stitches, koper stitches and float structures. Based on threading with yarns in two colors, jacquard bars in split execution create a pattern with a double-colour effect. To realize a highly efficient design, the paper proposes a computer-aided jacquard design method covering technical parameters and jacquard pattern design modules. Additionally, to pursue convenience and efficiency, mathematic models are built in terms of an automatic borderline design, loop stitching inspection and structure database. The method of jacquard vamp fabric design with a double-color pitting effect has been proven practically by illustrating a vamp design example which meets the requirement of fashion and performance well.

Visual illusion is a new computer abstract art style in information age. Depending on digital design technology, applying digital image with visual illusion, digital jacquard fabric featuring visual illusion effect is produced based on the application of half-backed woven structure. Key technology is that using digital layered-combination design mode and backed structure design method, the structure of jacquard fabric can be designed to express entire color changes of yarn. If random covering effect among weft yarns were realized in compound fabric structure, delicate and random color transition can be produced on face of fabric. In this paper, the design principle and method of visual illusion effect digital jacquard fabric were introduced and analyzed with proper design illustrations and objective results. It is envisaged that this study has good reference to design innovation of digital jacquard fabric.

Along with the continuous development of embedded systems, embedded products take higher requirements on the scale and performance of system software, and contributing to the complexity of control algorithm. So it would take more time and expense to realize the control algorithm. Therefore, traditional design is out of date and cant cope with the modern development rhythm well. While the Model-Based Design, is an efficient design method to deal with complex embedded control systems. It provides a common development and test platform for the engineers. In this paper, we take the power windows control system as example; establish the algorithm model with the Simulink/Stateflow. Then we introduce these process of the control system design which is based on the Model-Based Design method, according to the result of the final experiment, we prove the efficiency of this method, providing a reference for the design of other complex control systems.

BACKGROUND Background: There is a growing interest in using mobile applications in supporting health and wellbeing. Evidence directly from people with dementia regarding the acceptability, usability and usefulness of mobile apps is limited. It builds on ‘My Health Guide’ which was co-designed with people with cognitive disabilities. . OBJECTIVE Objective This paper describes the protocol of a study evaluating an app designed for supporting wellbeing with people living with dementia, specifically focusing on enhanced safety through improved communication METHODS Method: The study will employ design research, using participatory qualitative research methods over three cycles of evaluation with service users, their families and practitioners. The study will be developed in partnership with a specialist home care service in England. A purposive case selection will be used to ensure that the cases exemplify differences in experiences. The app will be evaluated in a ‘walkthrough’ workshop by people living with early stage dementia and then trialled at home by up to 12 families in a ‘try-out’ cycle. An amended version will be evaluated in a final ‘walkthrough’ workshop in cycle 3. Data will be collected from at least four data sources during the try-out phase and analysed thematically (people with dementia, carers, practitioners and app usage). An explanatory, multiple-case study design will be used to synthesise and present the evidence from the three cycles drawing on Normalisation Process Theory to support interpretation of the findings. RESULTS Results: The study is ready to be implemented but has been paused to protect vulnerable individuals during the Coronavirus in 2020. The findings will be particularly relevant for understanding how to support vulnerable people living in the community during social distancing and the period following the pandemic, as well as providing insight into the challenges of social isolation arising from living with dementia CONCLUSIONS Discussion: Evaluating a mobile application for enhancing communication, safety and wellbeing for people living with dementia contributes to key ambitions enshrined in policy and practice, championing the use of digital technology and supporting people with dementia to live safely in their own homes. The study uses a co-design method to enable the voice of users with dementia to highlight the benefits and challenges of technology and shape future development of apps that potentially enhances safety through improved communication.

And Performance

Modular design, Axiomatic design (AD) and Theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) have been increasingly popularized in concept design of modern mechanical product. Each method has their own advantages and drawbacks. The benefit of modular design is reducing the product design period, and AD has the capability of problem analysis, while TRIZ’s expertise is innovative idea generation. According to the complementarity of these three approaches, an innovative and systematic methodology is proposed to design big complex mechanical system. Firstly, the module partition is executed based on scenario decomposition. Then, the behavior attributes of modules are listed to find the design contradiction, including motion form, spatial constraints, and performance requirements. TRIZ tools are employed to deal with the contradictions between behavior attributes. The decomposition and mapping of functional requirements and design parameters are carried out to construct the structural hierarchy of each module. Then, modules are integrated considering the connections between each other. Finally, the operation steps in application scenario are designed in temporal and spatial dimensions. Design of cutter changing robot for shield tunneling machine is taken as an example to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Qualitative Interview Study

Patients’ emotional responses to the hospital environment can be considered as important as medical technology and equipment. Therefore, this study investigated their experiences to determine whether the pattern using hospital identity (HI) elements, a widely used design method for patient clothing in university hospitals, can affect their emotional response and contribute to healing. It aimed to identify whether controlling the motif characteristics, arrangement, and spacing in this pattern design, and the direction between motifs, could be a method to design patient clothing for healing. To investigate patients’ emotional response and suggestions for patient clothing design, an interview-based qualitative approach was used. In-depth interviews were conducted with 12 patients discharged from Kyung Hee University Hospital Medical Center (KHUMC), Seoul. The interview questions consisted of two parts. One part featured questions about participants’ emotional responses to the medical environment and their latest patient clothing experience, and the other featured questions about their emotional response to, and suggestions for, the healing expression of pattern design using HI. The results confirmed that the motif characteristics, arrangement, and spacing, and the direction between motifs, influenced patients’ positive emotions and contributed to the healing effect. Therefore, when the HI elements of a medical institution are applied in the design of patient clothing with the characteristics of a healing design, patients perceive this as providing stability and comfort. The design of patient clothing becomes a medium that not only builds the brand image of medical institutions, but also enhances the quality of medical services centered on patient healing.
