Research Interests:
|
Research interests lie in the area of noise and vibration control in textile machinery, acoustic properties of materials, and material-machine interactions.Special interests are in modification of existing equipment to improve productivity and maintain environmental standards.
Recent efforts include:
- Research in developing models for prediction of fabric acoustic properties.
- Study of fluid flow through nonwoven structures.
- Time related studies on the effects of fabric properties.
- Optimizing processing conditions for microdenier fibers.
