<p>Recently, affordable desktop digital fabrication tools such as 3D printers and laser cutters, and design data sharing via the Internet have been maximizing the potential for personal production. The purpose of this study is to elucidate an overview of Fab Labs in Japan and the extent of their support for beginners in digital fabrication. We conducted field research at 8 Fab Labs in Japan, the first research of multiple Fab Labs conducted by an external research team. The research included site visits, interviews with the managers of Fab Labs, and observations of instructor-led lessons and "open labs". Field research results showed the current state of difficulties for beginners, support activities for them, and knowledge sharing practice in Fab Labs in Japan. Regarding the first difficulty, "preparing design data", instructor-led lessons and guidance on reuse of shared data appeared to be useful to them. Regarding the second difficulty, "developing a plan of work", reference to work produced by others and sharing knowledge generally, provides hints for beginners. Communication amongst participants at the "open lab" was also recognized as a support for beginners.</p>

<p><tt>乳がん術後女性のブラジャーと補整パッドの不具合解決にむけた指針を得ることを目的に研究を行った．被験者は，胸部形状に左右差のある乳がん術後女性12名（右全摘4名，左全摘4名，温存4名）である．実験1では適合したブラジャー(My ブラ)と補整パッド(My パッド)を，実験2ではMy ブラに同一型で重量の異なる補整パッド（トライアングル型シリコンパッド）6 種を試料とした． 実験1：全摘の被験者は，肩がこる，左右のバランスが気になる，全体的な圧迫感があると，半数以上が訴えた．パッドを装着しない時の重心は，多くの事例で術側にあったが，パッドを装着すると健側方向に変位した．実験2：全体の衣服圧はパッドの重量増加で高くなったが，特に術側の衣服圧が増加した．また，被験者はパッドが重いと感じ，肩がこる，全体の圧迫感がある，左右のバランスが気になるとした．術側の負担を軽減するためには，被験者ごとに補整パッドの重さを再検討する必要が</tt><tt>ある．</tt></p>

<p>左右どちらかの乳房を全摘または温存(部分摘出)手術した乳がん術後女性を対象として，上肢挙動に伴うブラジャーフレームのずれを明らかにすることを目的とした．被験者は乳がん術後女性12名(全摘7名,温存5名)である．実験は，試料Iのパッド有無と試料Ⅱのパッド有無の4条件で，上肢挙動を繰り返す間の動きを，CCDカメラで取り込んで，運動画像解析システムで解析した．ブラジャーフレームのずれ量は，上辺より下辺が多く，特に前面カップ下のずれ上がりが顕著であった．上肢挙動中でずれ量が多かったのは，上挙時で，次いで側挙,前挙となった．動作終了時のずれ量は，温存より全摘が多く，特に術側で多くなった．術側はアンダーからトップにかけての形状が平滑であるため，上肢挙動でずり上がった量がそのまま残留する結果となった．しかし，パッドを装着すると，全摘，温存にかかわらず，ずれ量が減少し，特に術側のずれ量が少なくなった．ブラジャーフレームのずれは，パッドを装着することで少なくなり，ずれ難くなることが分かった．</p>

<p>フィールド実験により，乳がん術後女性の衣服内気候について検討した．被験者は術後者4名(片側乳房全摘2名，乳房温存2名)および健常者4名とした．術後者では術側と健側，健常者では右側と左側のブラジャー(およびパッド)内の温湿度を10秒毎に60分間測定した．衣服内温度は，いずれの術後者も術側の方が高い値を示した．その理由として，乳房全摘術後者が装着しているシリコンパッドの影響，乳房温存手術後の放射線照射に起因する発汗機能の損失が影響している可能性，の2つが考えられる．シリコンパッド内は湿度もきわめて高い値を示した．これらの結果から，乳がん術後者の着衣における温熱生理的不快の大きさが示唆される．</p>

We conducted a questionnaire survey on 344 females who had undergone breast cancer surgery in order to investigate their postoperative concerns for clothing. We focused on the inconveniences of clothing and on their attitude and consciousness towards clothes in analyzing the results from the standpoint of their quality of life, QOL, and their body image, BI. The results obtained were as follows: (1) The QOL ratings of the participants, on the whole, were not particularly low and the inconvenience felt in everyday life was considered to be little. However, QOL seemed to be closely related to each patient’s stage of disease, number of operations undergone, postoperative time lapse, and side effects of the treatments given following surgery. On the other hand, BI results, in general, were low and reflected the participants’ pessimistic attitude towards their body image. The BI ratings seemed to be closely related to the degree of deformity in their breast area, and showed no trace of recovery even after a considerable postoperative time lapse. (2) The participants expressed their feeling of inconvenience related to clothing matters.Clothes that did not reveal their bust line were more often chosen, meaning that their choice of clothes was limited in shape and design. The participants with lower QOL ratings seemed to feel more inconveniences in the function or comfort of their clothes, indicating that their clothes were, for example, too tight or sensitive to the skin, while the participants with poorer BI felt more inconveniences in revealing their bust line. (3) While the general results for their attitude and consciousness towards clothes showed a negative tendency, the participants with lower QOL ratings tended to try and keep the level of comfort of their clothes, and the participants with lower BI ratings tended to take on a more positive consciousness and attitude towards clothes. Similar results could also be speculated from the analysis of their free description.

This study was performed to create guidelines for management of insufficient fitting of brassieres and pads (prostheses, breast forms) in women after breast cancer surgery. Subjects consisted of 10 women with breast asymmetry after breast cancer surgery (5 after full mastectomy and 5 after breast conserving surgery). Three-dimensional measurement of the breast shape was formed and clothing pressure was measured on 10 points over the healthy side and 10 points over the diseased side wearing either a brassier which the woman felt the most comfortable (sample 1) or a brassier which the woman felt less comfortable but used daily (sample 2). The measurement 3 performed with and without shape-correcting pads in each subject. It was considered that the major difference between sample 1 and sample 2 brassieres was unbalance of clothing pressure, especially an excessive pressure on the diseased side. Without pads, clothing pressure was greater on the healthy side. With pads, however, the morphological unbalance between the healthy side and diseased side was relieved. The overall clothing pressure ceased after applying pads and tended to deviate to the diseased side. This tendency was evident especially in the subjects after full mastectomy. © 2011 Jpn.Res.Assn.

We conducted a questionnaire survey on 344 females who suffered from breast cancer to investigate their problems with clothing after breast cancer surgery. In this study, we focused on the use of brassieres and the inconveniences they caused.The results obtained were as follows:1) More than half the participants felt there were difficulties and inconveniences associated with their brassieres, such as an imbalance of the two breasts, crawling up of the cups, and a humid sensation inside the bra cups, all of which were more often found amongst the participants who had undergone a mastectomy.Difficulties and inconveniences of bras, such as tightness under the bust, slipping down of the shoulder straps, and pain from abrasion were more often found in the participants who had undergone a breast conserving surgery. The first step we should take in solving these problems is to sort out the relationship between the inconveniences of bras and the diversity of the deformity and wounds in the breast area.2) We examined the connection of the inconveniences of bras with the physical symptoms and side effects of breast surgery. The results suggest an urgent need to provide patients with not only better bras but also other clothes ranging from innerwear to outerwear.3) The bras used were classified into three types: exclusive bras for breast cancer patients, ordinary bras different to the ones used before surgery, and the same bras as those used before surgery. The exclusive bras were shown to be easy on the body and were highly ranked except for moisture and hotness inside the bra cup. We believe this result was achieved through the use of silicon pads. The results for bras different to the ones used before surgery tended to show the greatest inconveniences, suggesting a need for more information in order to improve the comfort of bras after surgery.

The objective of this study was to obtain useful information for the conservation of modern textiles in which early synthetic dyes are used. Dye class identification was carried out on silk crepe specimens such as stencil-dyed kimono fabrics of the Meiji era. A total of 116 sections of different colors were prepared and subjected to the tests, which included extraction by various solvents, dyeing properties of various fibers and color change due to reduction/oxidation, according to the JIS method provided for identification of dye classes on dyed textiles. The results revealed that many acid dyes (mainly red) and basic dyes (violet or blue only) are used in the specimens. Identifying dye classes used in a textile may make it possible to predict the properties of the dye or the dyed textile, and may provide useful information for the appropriate care of the textile.

たまねぎ外皮で染色し金属媒染した羊毛布について, 洗濯堅牢性に及ぼす洗剤の影響を調べた.洗剤には, 各種JIS洗剤, 各種市販洗剤, および洗剤の主要な成分として界面活性剤または金属イオン封鎖剤を使用した.その結果, 洗濯後の染色布には色相変化が見られ, 変退色の程度は媒染剤の有無・種類と洗剤によって異なること, また, 界面活性剤よりも金属イオン封鎖剤の寄与が大きいことがわかった.&lt;BR&gt;さらに, たまねぎ外皮含有色素クエルセチンの溶液に媒染剤金属や洗剤成分を添加して, 紫外可視吸収スペクトルの変化を調べた.その結果, クエルセチンと金属を含む溶液は, 可視領域にクエルセチン+金属錯体に由来する吸収を示した.さらに洗剤成分を添加すると, 金属イオン封鎖剤添加の場合に, 色素+金属錯体に由来する吸収がほぼ消失した.このことから, 染色布における変退色の原因のひとつとして, 金属イオン封鎖剤による媒染剤金属の捕捉が推測された.

A cotton fabric has been artificially aged by dry heat at 150°C with or without initial exposure to ultraviolet light. The observed property changes in the aged cotton samples include a loss of breaking strength, a decrease in moisture regain, yellowing, and an increase in carbonyl or carboxyl content. Dyeability is examined to characterize the physical and chemical changes in the aged samples. Dye uptake with direct dyes decreases as heating time increases, which can be attributed to increased crystallinity and the formation of carbonyl and carboxyl groups. The decrease in dye uptake is more remarkable with the larger molecular sized dye than with the smaller dye, in dicating that some changes have occurred in the size of the pores that accept dyes. From the adsorption isotherms, we see that the dye adsorption mechanism is not similar for untreated and aged samples, due to chemical structural changes such as the formation of carbonyl and carboxyl groups. The slight increase in basic dye uptake is also attributable to carboxyl group formation. © 1996, Sage Publications. All rights reserved.

The changes in properties of cellulose brought about by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, heat exposure and by a combination of both treatments were determined. The methods of characterizing the changes included breaking strength, color, yellowness index, thermal analysis, dye adsorption as a measure of changes in fine structure of the fibers, and Turnbull's Blue test as an empirical measure of carboxyl content. The exposures increased the color and yellowness of the samples as well as the carboxyl content and decreased dye adsorption and breaking strength. A shift of the decomposition endotherm of cellulose to lower temperatures was also noted. It appears that, under the exposure conditions used in this study, the changes in carboxyl content, color changes, yellowness index and breaking strength induced by heat are accelerated by an initial exposure to UV light but still simulate heat ageing alone. There also appears to be a correlation between breaking strength and dye uptake.

The correlation between wetting properties and water absorbency was investigated for cellulosic and polyester fabrics soiled with various oily substances. As a measure of the wettability of oil, the work of adhesion between oil and water was estimated from surface and interfacial tension data. Water contact angles against the oily soiled cellophane and polyester films were measured to examine the wettability of the soiled surface. These wetting data were plotted against the water absorbency of the rayon and polyester fabrics soiled with oil. The results show good correlation between the wettability of oil or of the oily soiled surface and the liquid water uptake of the fabrics. However, the differences between the geometric structures of the fabrics and plain surfaces must be considered in further discussions.

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) has been applied to studies of oily soil removal from fibrous materials. Fabric and filter paper were soiled with various oily substances present in sebum. After washing, the fibrous samples were subjected to DSC measurements. The residual oily soils on the samples were analyzed by the melting peak areas of the DSC heating curves, a method that is widely applicable to various oily substances with different melting points and polymorphic forms. Various woven or nonwoven fibrous samples can be scanned, regardless of sample size in washing experiments.

The removal of process of oleic acid from fibrous substrates in aqueous solutions of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) has been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The DSC heating curves for the fibrous specimens soiled with oleic acid and then washed with an aqueous solution of SDS have shown two distinct endothermal peaks; one is due to the melting of ice adhering to the specimens, and the other is due to the melting of oleic acid remaining on the specimens. A broad endothermal peak attributable to a liquid crystalline phase composed of SDS, water, and oleic acid on the specimens in the washing process has also been observed between the melting peaks of ice and oleic acid. The change of DSC curves with washing time suggests that the formation of a liquid crystalline phase would make some contribution to the removal of oleic acid.
