    The Impact of Knitted Linked Seams on Comfort and Friction Perception
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024-08-29) Temel, Mevra; Scott, Eleanor; Cain, Rebecca; Johnson, Andrew A.
    Friction from knitted clothing can cause discomfort and skin issues, underscoring the importance of tactile comfort for wearers. Seamless knitted garments are assumed to be comfortable to wear, yet there is little understanding of their tactile comfort in comparison to linked seams - the most common form of knitted garment. This novel study examines the influence of a garments knitted structural architecture on clothing comfort and wearability by investigating skin friction and tactile perception across ten body regions in both male and female participants, using two commonly utilised materials and seam designs: cotton and merino wool with plain and linked seams. The impact of seam design and regional factors on skin friction and tactile perception was analysed, revealing varying levels across tested body regions. Removing seams exposed a greater surface area to skin contact, leading to higher perceived friction levels. As such, structural elements in knitted garments enhance wearer comfort. Seamless knitwear manufacturing offers a more environmentally conscious option compared to traditional cut-and-sew processes. This study investigated the impact of knitted garment material and structure on wearer comfort by analysing skin friction and tactile perception across ten upper body regions. Removing seams increased garment-to-skin contact leading to wearer discomfort.

    Parallel Machine Scheduling With Re-Entrant Jobs With Consideration of Set Up Times
    (ISRES Publishing, 2024-12-30) Kayisoglu, Betul; Bekli, Seyma; Sahin, Ayse Sena; Akyurek, Gamze Gul; Aydinli, Ruveyda; Copur, Sevda Nur; Ekinci, Tugba
    We study the identical parallel machine problem with re-entrant jobs. Re-entrant jobs require to pass through the processing line multiple times. In many real-life manufacturing systems with parallel machine environments, one of the scheduling problems that needs to be addressed is the order of jobs on each machine with re-entrant jobs. In addition, manufacturing systems may require periodic maintenance, systematic manufacturing equipment cleaning, or predetermined upper limits on the overtime. Therefore, machine availability may vary during the scheduling horizon. We propose an integer programming model to find the optimal sequence of the re-entrant jobs at parallel machines with consideration of machine availability. The model aims to reduce setup times and maximize capacity utilization by scheduling tasks with similar set up requirements consecutively. We tested the proposed model at a panel line manufacturing company located in Turkey. The order of the panels is scheduled optimally by the proposed model for 3 different instances on the identical parallel machines for the coating process. We also provided relevant information on the user interface we developed to make the proposed scheduling model usable to by the company. The proposed model and interphase offer a systematic approach to panel line planning and can also be implemented in other industries. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Experimental and Statistical Damage Analysis in Milling of S2-Glass Fiber/Epoxy and Basalt Fiber/Epoxy Composites
    (Wiley, 2024-07-30) Sayin, Ahmed Cagri; Danisman, Sengul; Ersoy, Emin; Yilmaz, Cagatay; Kesriklioglu, Sinan
    S2-glass fiber reinforced plastics (S2-GFRP) and basalt fiber reinforced plastics (BFRP) have emerged as crucial materials due to their exceptional mechanical properties, and milling of composite materials plays an important role in achieving desired properties. However, they have proven challenges due to relative inhomogeneity compared with metals, resulting unpredictability in quality of milling operations. The objective of this work is to investigate the effect of cutting parameters, tool geometry and tool surface materials on the surface quality of composites using burrs as a metric. S2-GFRP and BFRP composites were produced by the vacuum infusion method. Helical and straight flute end mills were manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) and carbide rounds, and half of them were coated with titanium nitride using reactive magnetron sputtering technique. Taguchi L18 orthogonal array is used to determine the effect of tool material, tool angle, coating, cutting direction, spindle speed, and feed rate on the machining quality of S2-GFRPs and BFRPs with respect to burr formations. Milling experiments were conducted under dry conditions and then the burrs were imaged to calculate the total area and length. Statistical analysis was also performed to optimize the machining parameters and tool type for ensuring the structural integrity and performance of the final composite parts. The results showed that the selection of tool material has the most significant impact on the burr area and length of the machined surface. The novel image analysis allows to analyze the extent of the burr size with a desirable operation speed for industrial applications.
