NEW FRAMES OF ARCHAEOMETRICAL DESCRIPTION OF SPINDLE WHORLS: A CASE STUDY OF THE LATE ENEOLITHIC SPINDLE WHORLS FROM THE 1C SITE IN GRÓDEK, DISTRICT …

2010

The essential role of yarn spinning in textile production is indisputable. In this context, spindle whorls, the basic spinning accessories that can be found in the archaeological record, are commonly discussed. Even though the importance of the technical specification of spindle whorls has been already recognized by some authors, their functional characteristics are usually limited to the basic parameters affecting their usage range (i.e., weight, diameter and height). And since the mass moment of inertia of spindle whorls is considered to be a salient index when discussing their technical variability, the descriptions are deficient. With this short study, we intend to implement further res…

Mechanical Characterization of a Basalt Fabric for TRM Composites: Role of the Test Variables

2021

Textile reinforced mortar (TRM) materials are currently receiving great attention for the strengthening of reinforced concrete and masonry structural elements. Mortars with different strength classes have been coupled with different kind of synthetic fabrics, such as carbon, glass, steel, PBO. Recently natural fibres and, in particular, basalt fibres are receiving increasing interest since they proved to be a promising alternative to the most common synthetic fabrics, thanks to the reduced production costs and the consequent benefits in terms of environmental impact. This paper presents an experimental investigation comprising forty-one monotonic tensile tests on textile strips made with a …

Indústria têxtil de Santa Catarina e sua capacidade inovadora: Estudo sob a perspectiva da eficiência, eficácia, custos e melhoria de processos

2014

Santa Catarina se destaca como um dos principais parques produtivos do setor têxtil. Assim como as demais indústrias têxteis brasileiras, a catarinense vem sofrendo pressões de mercado, principalmente dos países asiáticos. O estudo teve como objetivo identificar se as dimensões - eficiência, eficácia, custos e as melhorias de processo – estão associadas ao desempenho da inovação na indústria têxtil de Santa Catarina. A pesquisa foi descritiva, exploratória e causal, de levantamento ou survey e quantitativa. A amostra foi composta por 441 respondentes de 16 organizações do estado de Santa Catarina. Os dados foram analisados por meio de análise fatorial exploratória, análise fatorial confirma…

Growth of human cells on a non-woven silk fibroin net: a potential for use in tissue engineering.

2003

We have examined a novel biomaterial consisting of a non-woven fibroin net produced from silk (Bombyx mori) cocoons for its ability to support the growth of human cells. Various human cells of different tissue and cell types (endothelial, epithelial, fibroblast, glial, keratinocyte, osteoblast) were examined for adherence and growth on the nets by confocal laser microscopy after staining of the cells with calcein-AM and by electron microscopy. All the cells readily adhered and spread over the individual fibers of the nets. Most of the cells were able to grow and survive on the nets for at least 7 weeks and growth not only covered the individual fibers of the net but generally bridged the ga…

Weaving words for textile museums: the development of the linked SILKNOW thesaurus.

2022

Abstract The cultural heritage domain in general and silk textiles, in particular, are characterized by large, rich and heterogeneous data sets. Silk heritage vocabulary comes from multiple sources that have been mixed up across time and space. This has led to the use of different terminology in specialized organizations in order to describe their artefacts. This makes data interoperability between independent catalogues very difficult. To address these issues, SILKNOW created a multilingual thesaurus related to silk textiles. It was carried out by experts in textile terminology and art historians and computationally implemented by experts in text mining, multi-/cross-linguality and semanti…

Raimundo Madrazo. The textile heritage at the golden age of collecting

2017

El origen de la predilección de Raimundo Madrazo por el coleccionismo textil proviene de su padre Federico Madrazo, y de su cuñado Mariano Fortuny, en lo que constituye una práctica social heredada que caracterizó a muchos de los pintores y artistas de la época. Algunos artistas de la época se convirtieron en coleccionistas de artes suntuarias del pasado con las que recrearon históricamente sus obras y con las que también hicieron mercado posteriormente. Madrazo estableció una amplia red que le permitió entrar en contacto con un heterogéneo grupo formado por marchantes, artistas, connoisseurs y museólogos, que lo posicionaron frente al apogeo de la demanda de antigüedades que estaban experi…

Il nobile casato dei Ventimiglia e Donna Felice Ventimiglia Barberini

2017

Nella prima parte del saggio (R.F. Margiotta, Il nobile casato dei Ventimiglia dalla Liguria alla Sicilia) si delinea la storia dei Ventimiglia, provenienti dalla Liguria, insediatisi in Sicilia sin dal Duecento, da Francesco I a Francesco IV Rodrigo, padre di Felice Ventimiglia, e ci si sofferma sulle opere più rappresentative da loro commissionate. Nella seconda parte (M.C. Di Natale, Felice Ventimiglia Barberini dal principato di Castelbuono a Roma) si prende in esame la figura di donna Felice Ventimiglia e se ne ripercorrono le vicende della vita attraverso due significativi documenti: l'inventario dotale della nobildonna, stilato nel 1693, in occasione delle nozze con il principe di pa…

Evolución de la eficiencia técnica de la industria textil española en el periodo 1995-2005. Análisis mediante un modelo frontera estocástica*

2021

La industria textil española, con un peso relativo importante en la manufactura, se encuentra sumida en una profunda crisis como consecuencia de la cada vez más agresiva e intensa competencia ejercida por los países productores de bajo coste. Si bien la eficiencia no agota el conjunto de estrategias para ser competitivo, la presencia de competidores induce a su búsqueda (Porter, 1990). En este trabajo se examina la evolución de la eficiencia técnica del textil español. Con tal finalidad, para el periodo 1995-2005 y cada uno de los siete grupos de actividad en que puede subdividirse la industria textil, se estima una frontera de producción estocástica de tipo translog. Los resultados empíric…

Arte Textil y tradición en la Provincia de Catamarca, Noroeste Argentino

2019

espanolLas tradiciones textiles en la Provincia de Catamarca, constituyen parte de una identidad cultural conformada a partir de elementos muy pujantes provenientes de distinto origen. Estos se traslucen tanto en estilos y tecnicas de piezas de exquisita estetica y calidad. Evidencian ademas, la historia de las industrias y manufacturas textiles que aportaron al desarrollo de esta actividad, considerada por sus habitantes como parte de su idiosincracia que -lamentablemente- con los anos tiende a desaparecer. EnglishThe textile traditions in the province of Catamarca, are part of a cultural identity formed from very vigorous elements from different origins. These are permeated both styles an…
