Abstract

In this study, the effect of the use of elastane on the tailorability and appearance of 100% wool and different proportions of wool – man-made fiber blended worsted suiting fabrics was investigated. The evaluations were made by means of mechanical properties. Although the amount of elastane used in the weft yarn of elastane-containing fabrics differed in each group, it was observed that the effect of elastane varied mainly depending on the fabric weight. It was seen that the use of elastane increased the bending rigidity for heavy weight (290 g/m2 and above) fabric groups (groups 1 and 6) and negatively affected tailorability due to low shear rigidity for fabrics other than these groups. Except for the group with low fabric weight, all groups were found to improve the appearance in both weft and warp directions. However, it was concluded that fabrics containing 7% or more elastane in the weft may have a seam puckering problem due to low formability in the warp direction. The effect of elastane on extensibility was found to be influenced by fabric density, elastane content and construction in addition to fabric weight. The low fabric density and weight caused excessive extensibility, resulting in very poor tailorability.

Abstract

Winner of the 2021 Suraj Mal and Shyama Devi Agarwal Book PrizeThis book provides a socio-economic examination of the status of women in contemporary Turkey, assessing how policies have combined elements of neoliberalism and Islamic conservatism.Using rich qualitative and quantitative analyses, Women in Turkey analyses the policies concerning women in the areas of employment, education and health and the fundamental transformation of the construction of gender since the early 2000s. Comparing this with the situation pre-2000, the authors argue that the reconstruction of gender is part of the reshaping of the state–society relations, the state–business relationship, and the cultural changes that have taken place across the country over the last two decades. Thus, the book situates the Turkish case within the broader context of international development of neoliberalism while paying close attention to its idiosyncrasies.Adopting a political economy perspective emphasizing the material sources of gender relations, this book will be useful to students and scholars of Middle Eastern politics, political Islam and Gender Studies.

Abstract

This paper investigates the relationship between health care market structure and utilization of preventive care services, namely mammogram and Papanicolaou (Pap-smear) screening. In addition to their life saving aspects, it is always believed that preventive health care services are important due to their cost-effectiveness which would prevail under managed competition. Yet, the nature of managed competition has been changing as a result of the backlash against it since the mid-1990s. We have yet to provide a clear answer to the question of how market structure affects the utilization of preventive care in general, and how the latest changes in health care market have been affecting it. These are the primary research questions of the paper. These research questions are answered by employing a new methodology that has not been used before. A multilevel modeling technique is employed to study the impact of changes in the structure of health care market on the utilization of mammogram and Pap-smear tests. In addition, an unusual data source, insurance claims data, rather than surveys or discharge data, is used in this study.
