This book includes selected articles from the 2nd International Conference on Innovative Textiles and Developed Materials (ITDM’2) held in Monastir, Tunisia, on May 5 and 6, 2023. The articles present latest scientific concepts and technological advances in innovative and sustainable textile materials and processes worldwide. The conference promotes exchange of ideas and emerging technologies to foster collaboration between academia and industry.

This book presents the proceedings of CIRATM-9. The papers present the latest scientific concepts and technological developments in textile and materials of worldwide researchers and practitioners. The conference promotes sharing ideas and emerging technologies and fosters research and development collaborations amongst academia, research institutions and relevant industries. CIRATM is the first international conference applied on textiles in Tunisia and all Maghreb. It is a regular conference organized every two year since 2004. It focuses on all textile and materials fields. It joints together all actors of textile field and share research with many international collaborators. This edition is organized with the collaboration of 4 Tunisian partners and 6 international associates and institutions · Laboratory of Textile Engineering (LGTex, Tunisia), · Monastir university (Tunisia) · Tunisian Association of Textile Researchers (ATCTex, Tunisia) · Le pôle de compétitivité Monastir-El Fejja (mfcpole, Tunisia) · Association of the universities for textiles (AUTEX, International) · Balkan Society of textile engineering (BASTE) · National research & development institute for textile and leather (INCDTP, Bucharest- Romania) · Yazid University (Iran) · Centre d'Essais Textile (Cetelor, Lorraine - France) · Center of Textile Science and Technology (2C2T – University of Minho, Portugal)

This book presents select proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Innovative Materials, Manufacturing and Advanced Technologies (IMMAT'2022), held in Sousse, Tunisia, on October 27-29, 2022. The covered topics include theoretical, experimental and technological works and its application in various challenging domains like materials sciences, mechanical design, manufacturing, environment and heat transfer. The volume provides an overview of innovations and technological advances in mechanical engineering. Given the selected and peer reviewed papers, it will be a useful resource for practitioners working on cutting-edge topics in several areas related to the mechanics such as mechanical behavior, material-process interaction, fatigue behavior, tribological behavior of surfaces, manufacturing, organization and optimization of production processes, additive manufacturing processes, renewable energy, design of lightweight components, robotics and industry 4.0. This book is intended to serve researchers, engineers and professionals working in the fields of material and mechanical engineering.

The use of textile materials for medical and healthcare products ranges from simple gauze or bandage material to scaffolds for tissue culturing and a large variety of prostheses for permanent body implants. This edited collection provides up-to-date information on all aspects of this rapidly developing field.
