The heat and moisture transfer model of firefighter protective clothing

This paper presents a model of heat and moisture transfer through multilayer firefighter protective clothing, which for the first time has taken into account all the major heat and moisture transport mechanisms including conductive and convective heat transfer, two-flux radiative heat transfer, moisture bulk flow, moisture absorption/desorption by fibers, moisture diffusion and phase change. The model was solved by Crank–Nicolson scheme of the finite difference method. Numerical analysis showed that our model can accurately predict the second-degree burn time with an error ranging from 0.37% to 3.55% for different types of clothing assemblies. With this model, the distributions of heat and moisture within the protective clothing system are elucidated and the relative importance of key clothing parameters on thermal protection better understood. It revealed that the thickness of the moisture barrier layer has the greatest influence on the skin burn time. This study is significant in providing a theoretical framework for optimizing the design of thermal protective clothing.

A model for predicting the similarity between real and virtual T-shirts based on sensory evaluation and image quantitative index evaluation

Reported herein is a model for evaluating and predicting the similarity between real clothing and clothing simulated by the virtual fitting software Vidya, the aim being to estimate accurately the similarity between real and virtual clothing. Firstly, we make real T-shirts and virtual T-shirts. According to Kawabata Evaluation System test parameters, 24 kinds of digital fabrics were constructed, and 96 virtual T-shirts were modeled from these digital fabrics. Then, 24 real T-shirts were made from the corresponding fabric. After that, the similarity evaluation indexes of virtual T-shirts and real T-shirts were extracted. Expert evaluation and digital image processing were used to evaluate the visual sense of the images and extract the indices of the evaluation-site images. Finally, the principal component analysis (PCA)-backpropagation (BP) evaluation model was established. Based on PCA, effective evaluation indices for real and virtual T-shirts were selected to construct an evaluation index system of clothing modeling and a BP neural network evaluation model. After repeatedly debugging the number of neurons, the model was optimized with four hidden-layer neurons, and the overall correlation coefficient R of the model reached 0.91075. In this paper, an evaluation index system for real and virtual T-shirts was constructed and, based on the indices, a rapid method for evaluating the virtual fitting modeling effect based on the PCA-BP model was established, which also provides a reference for the whole process of modeling evaluation of other virtual fitting software.

Review of Symbolic Interactionism Theory an Adolescent Self-Actualization through Korean Popular Culture

Korean Popular or often abbreviated as K-Pop, the fever is not only felt only in Indonesia, but has gone global. The craze for K-Pop music and Korean drama movies is an inseparable part of Korean fever in various countries. Korean popular culture fever also affects fashion in Indonesia, this can be seen from young people in Indonesia who often imitate Korean fashion. The desire of young people to follow this style of Korean popular culture fashion gives rise to an achievement of their self-actualization. Many teenagers imitate the Korean style, ranging from hairstyles, clothing models, accessories, to lifestyle and how to interact with peers. This is because they really like Korean popular culture such as Korean movies, Korean boy bands, to top Korean stars. One of the reasons is the beauty of the style or style of the film players and boy bands, the beauty of the appearance and physique of the stars, and the dramatic and unique storyline of Korean films. The theory of symbolic interactionism has three concepts, namely mind, self, and society, where these three concepts are strongly influenced by the interpretation of others who make contact or interact with us. The emergence of popular Korean culture is used as a symbol of interaction followed by young Jakartans. The clothes we wear, the way we walk and talk, the work we do, are perceived by others as symbols we build to tell others about who we really are. Who we are is called self-concept (Jones, 2001:145). The concept of interactionism is a guideline to analyze the self-actualization of Jakarta's youth. They fulfill their self-actualization needs, that is, fulfill their desire to be what they want to be.

Exploration on 3D imaging model construction of clothing fitting based on virtual reality technology

AbstractWith the continuous development of virtual reality technology (VRt), the clothing industry has begun to use VRt to build three‐dimensional clothing fitting models, which provide consumers with a comprehensive range of fitting effects. However, the traditional 3D (three‐dimensional) imaging model construction method for clothing has certain shortcomings. For example, the construction of fitting models is a process from planar to three‐dimensional, while the three‐dimensional fitting model is a process from two‐dimensional to three‐dimensional, which makes it impossible for users to obtain a more intuitive, visual, and comprehensive fitting effect during fitting. On the basis of summarizing the existing methods for building 3D imaging models of clothing, this paper proposed a method for building 3D clothing fitting models based on VRt and applied it to actual clothing fitting. This provided consumers with a comprehensive method for fitting clothing, thereby improving the shopping efficiency and quality of consumers when purchasing clothing. The research results show that the proportion of positive evaluations using VRt systems was 92%, while the proportion of positive evaluations using conventional technology systems was only 10%, indicating a positive relationship between VRt and the construction of 3D imaging models for clothing fitting. The VRt‐based clothing fitting system has strong practical significance, but it is still in the preliminary exploration stage. The system proposed in this paper does not include face modeling function. Therefore, in the future, we can consider adding a face reconstruction module to build a more personalized human model through photo reconstruction and other ways.

Fabric mechanical parameters for 3D cloth simulation in apparel CAD: A systematic review

The primary objective of 3D virtual garment simulation within apparel CAD systems is to generate a highly realistic garment that accurately conform to the human body. However, due to the complexity of textile mechanics, variations in measurement technology, and the absence of standardized units of mechanical parameters, there exists considerable confusion surrounding the implementation of mechanical parameters in cloth simulation. Consequently, the accuracy of cloth simulation varies significantly among different apparel CAD systems. This research article aims to enhance the understanding of the fabric mechanical behaviors, measurement techniques, and parameters essential for cloth simulation. To achieve this objective, we first present a concise overview of current garment simulation in apparel CAD systems, focusing on the utilized mechanical parameters and methods for simulation accuracy evaluation. Subsequently, we delve into the fundamental principles of mechanical behavior, discussing measurement methodologies and proposing parameter unifications along with appropriate data ranges. Finally, we conduct a comprehensive review of cloth models and the requisite parameters, while also exploring simulation-based approaches for parameter estimation. This work provides crucial insights into fabric mechanical parameters essential for achieving accurate 3D virtual garment simulation. The findings and information presented herein can be effectively utilized to enhance the precision and fidelity of apparel CAD systems, thereby facilitating advancements in virtual garment design and production.

Architecture as a source of creativity in the activity of designers

In many studies, designers' sources of inspiration have been investigated, the fact that they created new examples under the influence of which creative source was analyzed on the basis of real examples. In the course of research, it is revealed that, especially architectural art is one of the main sources of creativity in the creation of clothing models. In a broad sense, architectural-composition structure is the correct arrangement of the ratio of its elements. Here the unity and integrity between content and form is thoroughly defined. In both architecture and clothing, the rhythmic structure of forms is expressed in proportions, proportions, the choice of color associations, and the solution of artistic design as an ornamental composition. Therefore, architectural connection is considered the main means of expression in the creation of costume art. A bright example of the possibilities of such structures were earlier architectural monuments designed in the majestic Gothic style, which could create a real breakthrough in ideas.

NEGOSIASI BUDAYA DALAM OLAHRAGA (Studi Kasus Atlet Berhijab Figure skating Pertama Uni Emirat Arab)

The phenomenon of hijab is creating more and more space for consideration. The use of hijab among female athletes in various sports is increasing. This research discusses the clothing performance of Zahra Lari, a figure skating athlete from Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Figure skating is a sport performed by dancing on ice with tight clothing attached to the athlete's body. This type of tight-fitting clothing is aerodynamic and lightweight to make it easier for athletes to move without feeling overloaded. Zahra Lari was the first female athlete to wear the hijab at the 2012 European Cup Winter Championships in Italy. Zahra Lari received a deduction in the competition due to her unusual use of the hijab. The deduction made Zahra Lari appeal to the International Skating Union (ISU), because she felt unfairly treated. The appeal was eventually accepted by the ISU and since then many figure skating athletes have worn the hijab in various competitions. Zahra Lari's efforts to negotiate the figure skating clothing model with the addition of hijab is the focus of this research. This research aims to explain how Zahra Lari negotiates culture in order to be accepted to compete in international figure skating competitions without leaving her attitude and worldview in dressing. This research uses a qualitative method. Data collection techniques were carried out by studying English-language media and remote interviews. Interviews were conducted with Zahra Lari as the main informant. Interviews were also conducted with a figure skating coach in Kuwait and a Kuwaiti national figure skating athlete. The results showed that Zahra Lari's cultural negotiation had an impact on cultural harmonisation in figure skating.

Seasonal distribution of Calliphoridae and Mesenbrinellidae (Diptera) associated with the decomposition of a clothed animal model in a forest reserve in the Central Amazon.

We evaluated the effects of seasonality on the richness and abundance of dipterans of the families Calliphoridae and Mesembrinellidae associated with the decomposition of a clothed Large White swine Sus scrofa domesticus(Artiodactyla: Suidae) carcass. Experiments were carried out in less rainy, rainy, and intermediate periods between 2010 and 2011 at Reserva Florestal Ducke, Manaus, Amazonas. Two pig carcasses, each weighing approximately 40 kg, were used in each period. A total of 63,872 individuals of 18 species of Calliphoridae and Mesembrinellidae were collected. The abundance and richness of these dipteran families were influenced by the interaction between period and decomposition stage. The compositions of the Calliphoridae and Mesembrinellidae assemblages differed among periods, with the fauna of the less rainy period being less similar to those of the intermediate and rainy periods than they were to each other. Three species were selected as indicators for the less rainy period, namely Paralucilia pseudolyrcea (Mello, 1969) (Diptera, Calliphoridae), Paralucilia nigrofacialis (Mello, 1969) (Diptera, Calliphoridae), and Eumesembrinella randa (Walker, 1849) (Diptera,Mesembrinellidae) while Chloroprocta idioidea (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830) (Dipetra, Calliphoridae) was selected as an indicator species for the rainy period; no taxon was selected as an indicator of the intermediate period. Among decomposition stages, only fermentation and black putrefaction had indicator taxa, with Hemilucilia souzalopesi Mello, 1972 (Diptera, Calliphoridae and Chysomya putoria(Wiedemann, 1830) (Diptera, Calliphoridae), respectively. Clothes did not prevent the laying of eggs and became a kind of protection for immature stages. The clothed model presented a delay in decomposition compared to other studies developed in the Amazon region.

Construction of a simulation model of electromagnetic shielding clothing for shielding effectiveness analysis

Electromagnetic shielding (EMS) clothing is mainly studied for its shielding effectiveness (SE) through practical testing at present, which has many problems such as large experimental error and time and labor consumption. This paper proposes a method for constructing a simulation model of EMS clothing based on feature section replacement. Firstly, a human body model based on an elliptical truncated cone is established. A feature section of the key parts is built according to the morphological characteristics of the human body. Then a clothing structure model is established by replacing the corresponding sections in the elliptical truncated cone model with these feature sections. A digital description method for the model is given. The finite integral method is selected to calculate the SE of each test part when the clothing is completely closed, and the clothing contains holes and seams. By comparison with the measured value, it is concluded that the results of the constructed simulation model are in good agreement with the measured values. This paper establishes a new method to study the SE of EMS clothing, which provides a new approach for the design, production, evaluation and related research of EMS clothing.

A Practical and Hierarchical Yarn‐based Shading Model for Cloth

AbstractRealistic cloth rendering is a longstanding challenge in computer graphics due to the intricate geometry and hierarchical structure of cloth: Fibers form plies which in turn are combined into yarns which then are woven or knitted into fabrics. Previous fiber‐based models have achieved high‐quality close‐up rendering, but they suffer from high computational cost, which limits their practicality. In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical model that analytically aggregates light simulation on the fiber level by building on dual‐scattering theory. Based on this, we can perform an efficient simulation of ply and yarn shading. Compared to previous methods, our approach is faster and uses less memory while preserving a similar accuracy. We demonstrate both through comparison with existing fiber‐based shading models. Our yarn shading model can be applied to curves or surfaces, making it highly versatile for cloth shading. This duality paired with its simplicity and flexibility makes the model particularly useful for film and games production.

Image Classification on Fashion Dataset Using Inception V3

Fashion is a form of self-expression that allows us to be able to manifest our personality and identity more confidently. One of the effects of Covid 19 is the economics of the industry, especially the fashion category as the largest category in the e-commerce industry. However, A large number of categories in each fashion brand allows shop owners to be misclassifications about the placement of items that have nearly the same clothing model. The other problem is sellers uploading pictures of products on the platform for the sale and the consequent manual tagging involved. In this paper, we proposed image classification on the fashion dataset using inception V3. The methodology of this paper consists of scrapping data from the official websites of five famous fashion brands, data preprocessing, and classification with the Inception V3 method. The accuracy and F1-Score values obtained using Inception V3 are 92.86% and 92.85%. The proposed method is the highest result of the comparison method and can differentiate between knitted with a scarf that is difficult to classify when compared to other comparison methods.

Optimization of production process scheduling at Mataram Convection using the Campbell-Dudek and Smith method and the Ho and Chang method

Konveksi Mataram (Djagoan Kaos dan Seragam) is one of the industries engaged in the manufacture of various types of clothing models with fabric as the basic material. So far, the scheduling method used by the company is the First Come First Serve method, in which the completion of production is based on order-to-order data. In this case, with high order intensity, companies often experience difficulties in completing orders according to a predetermined pick-up time. The problems experienced by the company were caused by the production process scheduling that was not optimal. Based on the problems encountered, the purpose of this research is to obtain the optimal scheduling sequence by determining the smallest makespan (minimum total completion time) of the application of the method to the production process. The methods used in this study are the Campbell-Dudek and Smith method and the Ho and Chang method and from these two methods, it is known that the smallest production process is optimal. Based on the results of calculations using the Campbell-Dudek and Smith method, the optimal scheduling sequence with the smallest makespan is 39163 minutes or the production process will be completed in 73 working days. While the results of calculations using the Ho and Chang method obtained the optimal scheduling sequence with the smallest makespan of 38660.50 minutes or the production process will be completed in 72 working days. From the makespans of the two methods, the Ho and Chang method is superior to the Campbell-Dudek and Smith method with a difference of 502.50 minutes or about 1 working day, whereas when compared to the company's initial method, namely First Serve First Come with a makespan of 43025.50 minutes, the HC method can make completion time efficient with a difference of 4365 minutes or about 8 working days.

Art and Entertainment as Representation of Urban Community Lifestyle in Indonesian Metropop Novels

As a popular novel genre, Indonesian metro pop novels are claimed to represent a cultural phenomenon of urban communities who live and settle in big cities. This cultural phenomenon is closely related to the behavior and lifestyle of the urban community. The study of urbanism is assumed to attempt to understand the patterns, attitudes, and lifestyles of urban people reflected in various aspects and activities of life. The results of this study indicate that people who live in metropolitan cities and urban communities featured in Indonesian metro pop novels are described as people who have a luxurious lifestyle, hedonic, instant, consumptive, well-established profession, and have a pragmatic approach. In addition, the lifestyle of the urban community in the metro pop novel is also reflected in the model of clothing (fashion) used, the food and beverages consumed, the language used, ways of communicating, use of various devices, forms of art and entertainment, and habit of social media.

EKSISTENSI PAKAIAN DI SEMENANJUNG ARAB DALAM SEJARAH ISLAM

This article examines the existence of clothing according to Islamic history. The aim is to be able to understand the beginning of the existence of the development of clothing based on Islamic history which in the current context is referred to as the syar'i clothing model. These clothes were also associated with the social strata of society that existed at that time. This article is a literature review, using historical methods, namely: heuristics, criticism, interpretation and historiography. The results of this study indicate that clothing is an object used to cover the human body. Meanwhile, seen from its function, clothing functions as a cover for genitals, jewelry, protection and self-identity. In its development, the clothing of Muslims is still influenced by the Jahiliyah era, that is, in clothing it still shows some of their nakedness or the curves of their bodies. So that when Islam came, they rebuked him and gave advice to dress well. In its development, each region of the Arabian Peninsula has different clothing, as well as how to use it. So that people in the Arabian Peninsula who move from one region to another will be affected by the way the local people dress where they live. The types of clothing at that time included: Al-Marth, Ad-Dir, Qamish, Al-Khimar, Al-Izar and ar-Rida`. On the one hand the Arab nation is a pluralistic society consisting of various layers, namely: kings, soldiers, nobles, commoners, and so on. Therefore, the way they dress is a characteristic of the social strata in society. This can be seen from the clothes they wear which shows a prestige battle between them. Those who dress well and beautifully show that their social strata is high. On the other hand, those who dress badly show low social status. Thus the clothes have come out of their true function, as Islamic teachings are to cover the genitals, not to cover the genitals.

The index of clothing for assessing tourism climate comfort: Development and application

Climate comfort is a significant factor in analyzing the effects of climate change on tourism, and considerable research has used multidimensional climate indices to evaluate climate comfort. In particular, the index of clothing (ICL) is recognized as one of the most popular climate indices and has been widely applied in many studies. While few studies focused on the calculation method of the index of clothing model’s surface solar radiation (Ract), the computed value was greater than that observed at ground stations. Thus, this study tried to improve solar radiation energy calculation on the Earth’s surface in the index of clothing model with the method recommended by the International Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and then validated the new model based on the meteorological data of 31 provincial capitals in mainland China during 1980–2019. Results showed that: 1) The value of Ract calculated by the International Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) method was close to the site observations (Pbais < 15%), and was suggested to be used in enhancing the estimate approach for Ract in the index of clothing; 2) Different from the original index of clothing, ICL-new is significantly more effective in evaluating climate comfort in middle and low latitude regions; 3) Climate change had a considerable influence on the climate comfort of cities in mainland China. Since 1980, the climate comfort of cities in eastern China had increased in spring, while that of cities in western China had declined, and most cities had a decreasing trend in summer. Finally, our findings revealed that ICL-new can realistically and precisely depicts the actual scenario than the original index of clothing, and it is more suitable to provide scientific impact assessment and tourism management for government agencies and destination management.

Figuri de sfinți ierarhi in iconografia ortodoxă de secol XIV în spațiul românesc

"Figures of Holy Hierarchs in the Fourteenth Century Orthodox Iconography in the Romanian Space. The present study aims to establish cultural interconnections both between Wallachia and Transylvania and between them and the areas of Eastern and Western artistic influence, with the aim of identifying the transfer of clothing models from one cultural area to another, as well as to identify the reason behind the implementation of some of the figures of hierarchs in the mural theme of some of the churches. The paper notes several types of hierarchical figures organized according to the type of clothing and the context in which they are depicted. The representations of the holy hierarchs in the 14th century fresco reveal political, confessional and cultural links internally between the Romanian Countries, but especially externally, between them and the Western-Italian and Eastern-Constantinopolitan and Balkan areas. The origins of the hierarchical models reveal not only the areas of artistic influence but also a desire to affirm the newly established orthodox metropolitanates church and principalities in the Romanian Countries by adopting a predominantly monastic iconographic canon, as confessional validation in the face of Catholic proselytism. Keywords: Transylvania, Wallachia, XIV century, clothing types, cultural interference, Balkan countries, Constantinople, the West. "
