| Research Abstract |
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.
