TERRY TOWEL IN BANGLADESH
Terry towel is one of the fast growing and challenging sub sector of the textile sector of Bangladesh. Bath robes, hand towel, kitchen towel etc. are the products from terry in one word. Demand of these products is increasing very fast globally and also significantly day by day in the local market. Consumers pay on an average $7 for bath towel and their households in America. In last decades, the importance of this sector has been increased enormously with the incremental global demand. As Bangladesh is one of the major terry products exporting country among the terry manufacturing countries of the world. This report covers a details study about terry towel including manufacturing process, classsification and physical properties export import volume of terry towel.
Distribution of Fibres in Cross-section of Rotor- and Ring-spun Yarns and Their Strength
The nature of fibre migration, the number of fibres in yarn cross-section and the factors that influence the strength of rotorand ring-spun yarns have been studied. Rotor yarn comprised 15%less fibres in yarn cross-section than the corresponding ring yarn. Fewer fibres in ~arn cross-section in rotor yarn result in lesser yarn strength. Low values of stress-strain show up the limitation in the spinning of fine counts on a rotor-spinning machine.
Complexity, Network-Decisions And Alternative Risk Premia: Some New Theories Of Structural Change And Portfolio Decisions.
Structural Change is the basis for many decisions such as government fiscal and monetary policies, government interventions, corporate-expenditure decisions, corporate strategic decisions, portfolio management decisions in finance; household allocation decisions, etc.. Structural change in industries and national economies is increasingly more difficult to detect partly because of the growth and dominance of Complex Systems and “Networks” in modern industries and economies – such Networks and Complex Systems include GVCs (global value chains), retail store networks; franchising networks; internet networks; services networks; credit-chains in industries; online social networks; etc.. The relationship between Complexity and Structural Change is well established in the physics, applied math and economic dynamics literatures. Traditional definitions and modeling of structural change have erroneously focused on changes in labor, technological progress, market share, and or capital – which are grossly inadequate in the new economy and post- global financial crisis (as confirmed by changes in the global retailing and housing industries and other industries). Also the modeling of structural change seems to be constrained by the availability of data, and often omits the relationship between structural change on one hand, and globalization, financial stability and international financial contagion. This article: i) introduces the Operations Strategy Model of structural change, explains how it differs from the Lewis Model of Structural Change; and explains the often omitted relationship between operations strategy (of companies and government agencies) and structural change; ii) introduces other new Complexity-based models/theories of Structural Change in industries; iii) reviews the relationships among Operations Research, Complexity and Structural Change; iv) explains the symbiotic relationship between structural change on one hand, and economic growth, financial stability, financial contagion and globalization; v) discusses the significant gap between academic research and practice and explains some issues and factors that should be considered in the development and testing of structural change models; vi) explains how alternative risk premia can be generated from new models of Structural Change.
