Elke leerkracht wil graag een goede relatie met ouders. Pas als er een relatie met oudersis, kunnen er optimale omstandigheden worden gecreëerdvoor de ontwikkeling en het leren van kinderen (Bolks, 2011). Toch hebben niet alle leerkrachten een goede relatie met ouders. Van de Laar en Van Rijs (2011) …

The conductive textile grid is a large-scale (226 x 115 cm) multi-layer demonstrator exhibiting different conductive textile materials with certain outputs (such as LEDs, thermo-chromic ink and shape memory alloy) can be connected onto a base conductive fabric. Various conductive materials such as knitted …

The working hypothesis for this research project is that it is possible to develop a new functional polymer printing process for the direct application of conductive polymer onto textiles. We will use the basic extrusion technology that is currently applied in 3D printing. Thus the aim is also expanding …

Het project Veiligheid op de Werkvloer kijkt naar de industriële werkomgevingen de veiligheidsrisico’s die daar kunnen optreden. Doel van het project is ommet behulp van slimme ambient technologie de veiligheid te verhogen. Binnendit project is een roadmap ontwikkeld om zicht te krijgen op mogelijke …

In this document, we provide the methodological background for the Safety atWork project. This document combines several project deliverables as defined inthe overall project plan: validation techniques and methods (D5.1.1), performanceindicators for safety at work (D5.1.2), personal protection equipment …

The main challenge for the Dutch and European textile and clothing sector is to make a paradigm shift from labour intensive industry to knowledge based industry. This shift is essential for gaining a competitive edge and to develop innovative products and eco-friendly processes. A promising technology …

Many interesting smart textile concepts have been developed, however there are only a few relevant examples of concepts that are producible and valuable for our society. The so-called ‘killer application’ has not been found yet. That is why it is extremely important that multi-disciplinary parties team-up …

Research inspanningen gedurende de laatste decennia hebben geleid tot de introductie van een bio-katalytisch voorbehandelingproces voor katoen. In afwijking tot de gangbare procescondities, die leiden tot een hoog water- en energieverbruik, is voor het nieuwe proces een substantiële reductie van de milieubelasting …

Research through design allows creating a dialogue with the material. It uses making andreflection on action as a generator of knowledge. Our aim is to explore the opportunities and challenges of smart textiles. The Fablab is our set up, a place that allows us to combine the hackingscientific-, and design …

The focus of this paper is to make a comparison between five different types of conductive, heatable samples. These samples have been produced according to the five most important implementation techniques developed so far, which are knitting, weaving, embroidery, printing and nonwoven padding  –and …
