“…With the continuous progress of society, sports have become a popular item today, and in the era of brand competition, sports brands are undoubtedly one of the most fiercely competitive markets. However, the general sports brands started late and have no competitive competitiveness compared with some sports brand giants, and the marketing level of sports brands is very low, lacking brand international sports marketing strategies [11]. High-performance composite materials can improve the quality of sports equipment and thus have an impact on a brand's international sports marketing strategy and can improve the international development of sports brands.…”

With the continuous development of society, people are paying more attention to sports. In order to make sports brands go to the international market, it is necessary to adopt an international marketing strategy for sports brands. However, due to the late development of most sports brands, the main sports brand market is the mid-to-low-end market. Sports brands have little investment in scientific research and technology and build the market with celebrity endorsements or ultra-low prices. This leads to the lack of an international market for most sports brands, and the sports brands cannot be fully developed. Sports equipment is the core of sports brand marketing, and better quality sports equipment can affect the marketing strategy of sports brands, which improves their international sales capability. High-performance composite sports equipment has many advantages. Compared with traditional sports materials, it has high tensile strength, high wear resistance, and high corrosion resistance. High-performance composite materials were applied to sports equipment and were compared with traditional sports equipment. The quality of the sports equipment, the promotion of the sports brand, the positioning of the sports brand, and the sponsorship of the sports brand were compared between the two sports equipment brands. The test results showed that high-performance composite sports equipment could improve the quality of sports equipment by 25% and had greatly improved sports brand promotion, sports brand positioning, and sports brand sponsorship. Therefore, high-performance composite sports equipment can improve the marketing ability of sports brands in the international market by affecting the quality of sports equipment, promotion of sports brands, positioning of sports brands, and sponsorship of sports brands.

“…The interest is associated with sectors of activity where the needs for energy absorption, resistance to impact, hardness, and toughness are essential (Evans and Alderson 2000;Wang and Hu 2014). For instance, auxetic composite materials present great potential applications where energy absorption is a crucial factor in protection, such as sports activities (Steffens et al 2021), aerospace (Wang et al 2016), among others.…”

The European Defence Industry is undergoing profound changes. Industrial activity is now operating on a quintuple helix innovation model with the deep involvement of universities and governments in innovation. In addition, military innovations are being transferred to civil society, with increasing attention paid to the environment. In the first stage, we report on the state-of-the-art of existing research using PRISMA protocol. The PRISMA technique is widely accepted by the academic community for its ability to discover concepts, ideas, and debates about the defence industry. In the second stage, we present a case study involving the Portuguese Defence Industry, for which multiple data collection sources were used to ensure triangulation and corroboration. The results show that, in the light of the quintuple helix innovation model, it was possible to bring applications from theoretical discussion to real life. Moreover, within the scope of the triple helix, it was possible to develop, produce and test military products, allowing to improve the military capacity of ground forces. In the future, ecological concerns will likely increase, so we suggest a greater focus on this area of research.

“…Steffens et al found that the NPR value of the reinforcing auxetic knitted fabric was transferred from the fabric to the composite. They observed better auxeticity when the composite is produced from auxetic textiles instead of conventional textiles [18,19]. Similarly, NPR characteristics of auxetic yarns can be transferred to the fabric although yarns are incorporated into fabric conventionally [2,4].…”

The mechanical behaviour of auxetic materials and structures is the most distinctive characteristic, which differs from that of conventional engineering materials due to the negative Poisson’s ratio. Auxetic materials have the fascinating feature of widening when stretched and contracting when compressed. In recent times, the research of auxetic materials based on textile structures has received a lot of interest. Auxetic effect development at the yarn phase is a new and exciting field of study. Many researchers already developed different types of auxetic yarns, such as the helical auxetic yarn, the plied auxetic yarn, the semi-auxetic yarn etc. The helical auxetic yarn (HAY) is the most commonly mentioned auxetic yarn. It is made up of a rigid wrap and an elastic core yarn. However, it is interesting that auxetic yarns can be produced from conventional non-auxetic fibres through the conventional spinning system as well. The helical auxetic yarn is a new type of yarn with a wide variety of possible applications. Moreover, pore-opening characteristics of auxetic yarns make it a potential candidate in the fields of technical textiles, such as medical textiles, filter application, protective textiles etc. Fabrication of auxetic textiles by utilizing auxetic yarns through simple weaving and knitting technology opens the door to new applications. The aim of this paper is to address the fundamentals of auxetic yarns, such as structure, shortcomings, production techniques, as well as the influencing process parameters. From various research works, it is evident that the wrap helical angle, the core/wrap diameter ratio, and the initial moduli of wrap component are the most vital processing parameters during the production of auxetic yarns. Finally, some potential application areas and challenges of auxetic yarns are also addressed briefly in this paper.
