Yarn spinning dynamics and fibre arrangement form the cornerstone of modern textile engineering, underpinning both the quality of yarn and its performance in downstream manufacturing. An understanding ...

When a quiet, slightly nervous, yet eager-looking man walked onto the stage at EA’s E3 press conference last year, clutching a small red figure made of wool, it was hard to know what to expect.

To tell a story or quite often a tall tale was probably not uncommon amongst spinners while they spun their wool or flax into yarn, but did you know that spinners can also spin a fine tail? Spinners ...

There's something magical about the process of spinning wool. And once you are captivated by the feel of silky wool fibers as they slide through your fingers to become strands of soft yarn, it's all ...

Despite their immense potential, the road to translating the superlative properties of individual carbon nanotubes into high-performance macroscopic fibers and yarns has been fraught with challenges.

While the pattern for making a wearable fabric battery has already been laid out, it’s now time to select the threads that will turn a textile into an energy storage device. A doctoral student has now ...
