Outline of Final Research Achievements

The measuring equipment of clothing pressure to measure supporting wear for legs was developed using the lower part of the body mannequin of the Japanese woman of the 20-30 years old. The preferred pressure range of the whole body by subjective evaluations for wearing elastic band was clarified. When it was focused pressed lower limbs, from the variation of the response of functions of the autonomic nervous system for supporting wear, objective data for the pressure stress were obtained. It was compared with the former data, an appropriate range of the clothing pressure for supporting wear, and the problems in the clothing daily life became clear. From the former results, intensity of the clothing pressure of body part without the awareness, and wearing way were clarified.
