Two different animal models, which differ in whether or not taking maternal genetic effect into account, for estimating genetic parameters of cashmere weight, live body weight, cashmere thickness, staple length, fiber diameter, and fiber length in Inner Mongolia White Cashmere Goat were compared via likelihood ratio test. The results indicate that maternal genetic effect has significant influence on live body weight and cashmere thickness, but no significant influence on the other traits. Using models suitable for each trait, both genetic parameters and trends were analyzed with the MTDFREML program. Heritability estimates from single trait models for cashmere weight, live body weight, cashmere thickness, staple length, fiber diameter and fiber length were found to be 0.30, 0.07, 0.21, 0.29, 0.28 and 0.21, respectively. Genetic correlation estimates from two-trait models between live body weight and all other traits (-0.06~0.07) was negligible, as were those between fiber diameter and all other traits (-0.01~0.03) except cashmere thickness (0.19). Cashmere weight and staple length had moderate to low genetic correlations with other traits (-0.24~0.39 and -0.24~0.34, respectively) except for live body weight and fiber diameter. Cashmere thickness had a strong genetic correlation with fiber length (0.81), and low genetic correlation with other traits (0.19~0.34) except live body weight. Genetic trend analysis suggests that selection for cashmere weight was very effective, which has led to the slow genetic progress of cashmere thickness and fiber length due to their genetic correlations with cashmere weight. The selection for live body weight was not effective, which was consistent with its low inheritability.

Roll drafting, a mechanical operation attenuating fiber bundles to an appropriate thickness, is an important operation unit for manufacturing staple yams. It influences not only the linear density regularity of the slivers or staple yams that are produced, but also the quality of the textile product and the efficiency of the thereafter processes. In this research, the dynamic states of the fiber bundle in the roll drafting zone were analyzed by simulation, based on the mathematical model that describes the dynamic behavior of the flowing bundle. The state variables are the linear density and velocity of the fiber bundles and we simulated the dynamics states of the bundle flow, e.g., the profiles of the linear density and velocity in the draft zone for various values of the model parameters and boundary conditions, including the initial conditions to obtain their influence on the dynamic state. Results showed that the mean velocity profile of the fiber bundle was strongly influenced by draft ratio and process speed, while the input sliver linear density has hardly affected the process dynamics. Velocity variance of individual fibers that could be supposed to be a disturbing factor in drafting was also influenced by the process speed. But the major disturbance occurred due to the velocity slope discontinuity at the front roll, which was strongly influenced by the process speed. Thickness of input sliver didn't play any important role in the process dynamics.

The in-plane permeabilities for domestic geotextile products are calculated by some theoretical formulas and compared with them obtained by experiments to examine the suitability of those formulas. The results obtained are as follows: 1. It appears that the diameter of the filament yarn is larger and more uniform than that of the staple fiber according to the microscopic analysis on the geotextile 2. The in-plane permeability of the geotextile shows that the theoretical values by drag and channel theory is close to the experimental ones. 3. The porosity of the geotextile is hardly influenced by normal pressure. 4. In the case of the same thickness of the geotextile the side surface area of the filament yarn is larger than that of the staple fiber. 5. The capillary height of the geotextile shows that the theoretical values is close to the experimental ones and thick geotextile is higher than thin geotextile.

The present paper reports the detailed study on the splicing behavior of viscose staple fiber yarns made from ring, rotor, friction and air-jet spinning technologies. The linear density of all the yearns was kept constant at 29.5 tex. The splicing parameters like splicing pressure and duration of the splicing were taken as variables. Three levels of splicing pressure at constant splicing duration and three levels of splicing durations at constant splicing pressure were considered. Splices were introduced at all these levels for the four different technologies. These splices were tested for their tensile properties and the properties of splices were evaluated in terms of retained splice strength (RSS) and splice break ratio (SBR). The splice photographs were taken and splices were analyzed for their structure and for diameter profile along the length of the splice.

In the paper, deformation characteristics of fiber-mixed-soils, mixed polypropylene staple fibers of 0.3% fiber content with sands of various gradation, and their effectiveness of reinforcement were evaluated. A series of Resonant Column tests were performed with specimens prepared with varying Uniformity Coefficient and constant Curvature Coefficient. Maximum shear moduli 01 fiber-mixed-soils were increased by up to 30% and modulus reduction was also restrained in nonlinear range. Normalized shear modulus reduction curves of fiber-mixed-soils shift close to the upper limit of Seed curd Idriss's curves and are located within narrower band than those of unmixed soils, which proves the effectiveness on stiffness increment by reinforcing soils with fibers.

絲(bundle)와 구성섬유(fiber)간의 인장물성 관계를 규명하기 위한 연구는 오래전부터 계속되어 왔다[1-4]. 그러나, 과거의 연구들은 주로 면사와 같은 단섬유(short staple)를 중심으로 이루어졌으며, 합성섬유와 같은 장섬유(continuous filament)의 경우 불균제가 작다는 이유로 스테이플에 비해 소홀시 되어왔다. 조사에 의하면 합성섬유도 생산국 및 제조사에 따른 絲의 인장물성은 큰 차이를 나타내므로[5], 필라멘트의 인장물성에 대한 연구의 중요성도 간과할 수 없다. (중략)

드래프팅은 staple yarn의 생산에 있어 대단히 중요한 조작이다. 이 조작은 여러단계의 방적공정에서 반복 수행되며 각 공정에서 다음 공정에 적합하도록 두께를 가늘게 하고 집속체의 불균제를 최소화하여 제품의 품질을 결정하는데 그 중요한 역할을 한다. 지금까지 드래프트 전후의 슬라이버 상태에 관한 연구는 많이 이루어져 왔지만, 드래프트 존 내의 슬라이버의 동적거동에 대한 모델 연구는 아직 미흡한 실정이다. (중략)

Nylon 6 ultramicrofiber(UMF, monodenier 0.074d) and regular staple fiber(monodenier 2.05d) were dyed with acid and disperse dyes to investigate the effect of the difference of the fiber fineness. Also X-ray diffraction pattern, birefringence, DSC thermogram, moisture regain and water absorption of these fibers are measured. The dyeing rate of nylon UMF with acid dyes is increased compared with that of regular fiber, but not increased for disperse dyes. Also the saturation dye uptake of UMF with acid dyes is higher than that of regular fiber, while it is unchanged for disperse dyes. The moisture regain of UMF is similar to the regular fiber, whereas the water absorption of UMF is two times th그n that of the regular fiber. The crystallinity percentage of UMF is higher than that of regular fiber.

Water vapor and thermal transmission properties of high emotional garments are important to evaluate wear comfort; in addition, the measuring methods of these properties are also critical for breathable and warm suit fabrics. In this study, the water vapor and thermal properties of composite yarn fabrics made of CoolMax, Tencel, and Bamboo fibers with filaments were measured and compared according to the measuring method. Water Vapor Transmittance (WVT) of the fabric woven by the sheath/core composite yarn in the warp direction was the highest due to the small staple fiber volume in the sheath/core yarn structure and high air voids in the sheath/core yarn fabrics. This property was also the highest in fabrics woven by bamboo staple yarns in the weft direction, and was the lowest on hi-multi filament fabrics. However, water vapor resistance ($R_{ef}$) of these fabrics by KSK ISO 11092 showed the opposite results to the water vapor transmittance method ($CaCl_2$ method); in addition, its correlation coefficient was low. The correlation coefficient between $R_{ef}$ and the drying rate was 0.719; therefore, the measurement mechanism of $R_{ef}$ is analogous to the drying property measurement. The thermal conductivity of the fabrics woven with compact staple yarn showed a high value; however, the hi-multi filament fabric showed low thermal conductivity. Therefore, fiber characteristics affect thermal properties more than yarn structure. The correlation between thermal property and moisture transport was also low. This study showed that: water vapor transmittance was active at the loose yarn structure, dry heat transport was vigorous at the compact yarn structure, and heat transport was affected more by fiber characteristics than yarn structure. In conclusion, sheath/core composite yarns were relevant to the high absorptive cool suit along with siro-fil and CoolMax/Bamboo staple yarns that were relevant to the heat diffusive cool suit.
