Although the textile industry is in worldwide recession, the field of technical textile articles is in a continuous development, proving that the manufacturers of these products are concerned about finding solutions and creating high performance articles. Considering the need to increase productivity and product quality while reducing the consumption of materials, in the last decades, processing technologies specific to textile industry had a quick dynamic, that has led to the development of new, very efficient technological methods and processes, characterized by an advanced degree of automation. The proposed technological solution was developed based on the correlational analysis of the technological parameters of the variable geometry subassemblies, targeting the following technological aspects: monitoring of the functional parameters during the technological process development and real-time warning of the occurring dysfunctions; display of functional parameters and controls on a HMI touch panel display; adjusting the settings of the parameters of each inverter according to the dynamic parameters of the ordered devices (couple, speed, acceleration-deceleration, brake moment, etc.); PLC circuit logic programming via a software program dedicated to the application.

This paper depicts the early phase in the research development for an integrated support system tailored for emergency response actions and remote sensing. The support system is envisioned as an integrated Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) system that consists of one or more ultralight multifunctional aerial units with a configuration that can be adapted to the nature of the intervention: monitoring, mapping, observation and logistics etc. These aerial units comprise of para-motor type UAVs that use textile paraglider wings of a special design. The paper summarizes the basic materials used in the construction of parachutes, as well as it depicts the design phase for the main material used on the wing construction. Starting from wing airfoil and materials selection, a design phase is ongoing for a single sail paraglider wing that can meet the operational demands for emergency response situations. The wing is designed mainly to have an easy handling and to have a predictable deployment at all times. The entire system and the aerial units are designed with increased modularity in order to be tailored for specific operational requirements of the intervention. A numerical model is under development and rigorous testing to validate the theoretical aspects and the design choices.

The assimilation of synthetic macromolecular compounds in the interdisciplinary fields represented by the medicine and therapeutics, must address the complexity of the problems imposed by the application field, mainly resulting from the temporary or long-term contact of the polymeric materials with the tissues and biological substances. In this context, polymeric biomaterials are defined as polymers or polymeric composite types certified as biocompatible in contact with the biostructures. Comparing to conventional procedures, ultrasonic welding is a domain with a lower overall weight, but with exceptional development and dissemination perspectives in different industrial branches (automotive, electrotechnical, electronics, microelectronics, medical devices), which involves techniques of combining new materials, biocompatible, intelligent composites, with shape memory, etc. Through their geometric, technical, bio functional and biomedical characteristics, the implantable medical devices must meet the imposed requirements, mainly represented by: chemical inertia, resistance to infections, adequate ratio between flexibility and dimensional stability, adaptability to the defect geometry and high bursting resistance etc.

The Textile and Clothing Industry affects the environment through the use in the manufacturing process of very large quantities of water, energy and chemicals. This Industry generates a lot of waste, due to the use of a very large number of chemicals and technological processes. Waste generation implies a loss of materials and energy and imposes high environmental and economic costs to society for their collecting, treatment and processing. A permanent activity of finding technological solutions for the textile waste processing is also supported by the implementation in the economic and social life of multifunctional and adaptive textile systems for whose manufacturing smart elements are used. The work presents aspects on textile waste preliminary processing in the form of knitted bilayer textile structures containing conductive yarns. During the garments manufacturing have resulted textile waste. For these waste were conducted technological experiments of preliminary processing. This processing of the textile waste as yarns, trimmings from knitted fabrics, trimmings from woven fabrics includes the following operations: sorting depends on base colors, cutting, opening. The opening process can be characterized by: opening efficiency; unopened yarns percentage; unopened patches percentage; the average length of recovered fibers. In order to assess the fibers structures aspect, has been used the electron microscopy by analyzing their longitudinal and cross section images.
