New Measuring System for Clothing Pressure Using a Body Dummy for the Evaluation of Clothing Comfort

1997年，开发了一个人体下半身模型来取代人体，用于测量服装压力。我们使用4条裤袜和7条不同压力等级的腰带，通过将预测的衣服压力与实际测量的衣服压力值进行比较，来验证人体假人的有效性。采用12种不同压力等级的女性内衣，将人体的服装压力值与实际测得的服装压力值进行比较，验证了人体模型的有效性。结果表明，人体下半身的弹性表面模型可用于服装压力的测量。而且，人体上半身的测量压力值与人体的压力值接近。目前正在研究其他衣服使用该假人的有效性。此外，我们希望增加我们的机动性，以提高测量的有效性。

In 1997, a dummy of the lower half of the human body was developed to replace the human body for the measurement of clothing pressure. We investigated the validity of the body dummy by comparing the values of predicted clothing pressure with those of actually measured clothing pressure using four pairs of pantyhose and 7 girdles having different pressure levels.In 1998, a dummy of the upper half of the human body was developed. We investigated the validity of the body dummy by comparing the values of clothing pressure on the human body with those of actually measured clothing pressure using 12 underwear for women different pressure levels.As the results, a dummy of the lower half of human body which have elastic surface are useful for the measurement of clothing pressure. And, the values of measured pressure on the upper half of human body are close to those of the human body.The validity of using the dummy is currently under investigation for other clothes. Furthermore, we would like to add mobility to ours, in order to increase the validity of the measurements.
