  • Topology optimization for modeling and prediction of complex fabric structures and properties
    Patent number: 11761128
    Abstract: A method for modeling textile structures using bicontinuous surfaces includes selecting a virtual scaffold of bicontinuous surfaces defining textile fabrication pathways to model spatial relationships between the pathways and yarns in a desired yarn pattern of a textile fabric design. The method further includes constructing a yarn pathway across the bicontinuous surfaces that form the virtual scaffold. The method further includes removing or releasing tension from the virtual scaffold, thereby allowing yarns to relax and determining a physical property of the textile fabric design.

  • PROTECTIVE RESPIRATORS AND A METHOD OF MAKING A PROTECTIVE RESPIRATOR
    Publication number: 20210307422
    Abstract: A personal protective respirator comprising a facepiece housing configured to cover the nose and mouth and conform to a face of an intended wearer along a perimeter of the facepiece housing and at least two straps, wherein the facepiece housing and the straps consist of a knitted material and the facepiece housing conforms to the face of the intended wearer such that sufficient fit is achieved to attain a fit factor of at least 100 on the intended wearer according to OSHA fit testing procedures. Also, a personal protective respirator comprising a face portion configured to cover a nose and mouth of an intended wearer and to conform to a face of the intended wearer and at least four straps, wherein the mask meets NIOSH requirements for N95 respirator performance and maintains this level of performance after being washed. Finally, a method for making the noted personal protective respirators.
