“…1 and Table 1, the range of established pressure is 0.89 -4.97 kPa, depending on the human body parts and knitted materials used, and average value of pressure is 2.57 kPa.

These Our study included three steps.…”

“…where P max is the maximum-possible compression pressure provided by the tensile strain (elongation) of knitted shells, kPa; F (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14) is the tensile stress (force) that is necessary for stretching the material in 5-14% by KES-FB1, cN/cm; Cp So, we started to "adopt" KES-FB indexes under the real conditions of underwear wearing. "Adoption" means the way how the data selected from "tensile stress-tensile strain" test should be adopted for the simulation of the real conditions in underwear (lower stress and strain).…”

The presented research deals with the development of comfortable male underwear taking into account the development of pattern block methods and the analysis of the relationships existing between the compression pressure, the knitted materials properties, and some push-up effects. The main aim of this study is to achieve the technical selection of the materials based on KES-FB evaluations.The ease value has been used as the main index to connect the structural design of underwear, on one hand, and the body sizes, on other hand. A “bodyshell” system for testing the soft tissue of male bodies by FlexiForce sensor has been implemented. The pressures under the shells at six different places on the male body with ease changing have been tested.The collected results including maximum-possible pressure and material tensile indexes measured thanks to KES-FB have been analyzed in order to find the most relevant indexes of the material properties. A mathematical equations based on relationships combining theoretical model with practical application have been established. These equations will be helpful for the consumers and designers to select “the suitable knitting materials for male underwear” and they can be used too in the perspective of parameterization in CAD, in order to improve product developments efficiency.

“…Moreover, by and by the body tissue is adapted to the shaping of the garment. The findings indicate that selective pressure measurement may not be enough to investigate the functionality and mode of action of shaping products [12]. In recent projects the use of textile sensors was investigated [13][14][15][16][17].…”

Fashion garments sculpt the human body according to the up-to-date style. Foundation garments used to be out of whalebone and stiff materials. Nowadays thin and light shapewear aims to smooth obvious subcutaneous fat. Material, pattern, fit and formability of the body tissue influence the effect of shapewear. Thus, it is not known how much or even if shaping garments effect the body form. Moreover, there is a lack of standardized methods to analyze shaping effects of foundation garments. Up to now research focused two paths to analyze the functionality of shaping garment. First was to quantify the pressure applied, second was to measure the body changes achieved by the products. Governmental funded research project "Shaping Effects" aims to combine and pursue the research approaches. Project term is two years starting from April 2017. Therefore, most of the work is ongoing. The following presents preliminary results. 41 shapewear products were tested with HOSY apparatus to measure pressure gradient. PicoPress device was utilized to determine pressure between garment and manikin or human body respectively. 3D-analysis based on before and after scans was performed to measure changes in body geometry. Two test subjects tested shaping garments so far. Test methods were processed successfully. First results underlined the influence of material properties, body geometry and body tissue on shaping effects.

“…Clothing pressure is usually measured by inserting a flexible pressure sensor (such as an air pack) into the region between the skin and the clothing. 42,43 Pressure may be applied by stretching the fabric or by applying pressure circumferentially (e.g., by using a blood pressure measurement cuff). A pressure cuff, typically used for blood pressure measurement, was used to apply the pressure circumferentially around the limb (Fig.…”

Continuous measurement of temperature profiles on the surface of the human body offers various kinds of information valuable for clinical diagnosis and as a useful guide to take suitable action. In this article, the behavior of a newly developed temperature sensing fabric (TSF) over extended periods of time in a practical application and its comparison with a reference temperature sensor was investigated. The performance of the TSF was analyzed by measuring the human body skin temperature under steady-state and dynamic conditions. A dedicated interface was built in the LabVIEW environment to measure and record the temperature readings of the TSF and reference temperature sensor simultaneously. The reference and TSF sensors both followed exactly the same trends and experienced the same type of movement artifacts.
