My research study focuses on developing a sustainable method of producing garments by integrating 3D printing and cut-and-sew techniques. The fashion industry, a major contributor to global emissions and waste, must adopt eco-friendly practices to mitigate its environmental impact. This project explored the use of sustainable filaments and fabrics to create both physical and virtual garments. Through a four-phase process involving material selection, digital modeling, prototyping, and final construction, I aimed to produce a wearable 3D printed garment and a digital counterpart. This study highlights the potential of 3D printing to revolutionize garment production by reducing waste and offering innovative design possibilities.
Tailocins are antibacterial proteins produced by some bacteria to kill closely related bacterial strains. In nature, this benefits the microbe by offering a way for them to control the bacterial composition of their environments. However, in a lab setting, researchers can use these tailocins to treat against unwanted bacteria. The purpose of this research project …
Abstract — Remote sensing systems for precision agriculture allow for technology and automation to improve the profitability and sustainability of modern farms. The adoption of these systems in the United States has been slow, due to the high cost of and difficulty using them. The University of Idaho, in collaboration with Laurel Grove Wine Farm …
