Textile Engineering (ETX)
Section Information
Textile Engineering focuses on the design, production, and performance of fibers, yarns, fabrics, and textile-based products. The field integrates materials science, mechanical systems, chemical processing, and product design to develop functional, durable, and sustainable textile materials.
Current research includes advanced fiber development, smart and technical textiles, textile manufacturing technologies, sustainable dyeing and finishing processes, and performance evaluation methods. Advances in nanotechnology, automation, digital textile printing, and wearable technologies are transforming modern textile systems.
This section publishes experimental studies, process optimization research, materials innovation analyses, system design investigations, and review articles related to textile materials and engineering applications.
