Study on the Relation between the Air Gap Size under Clothing and the Comfort Sensations

IntroductionThe air gap exists between the wearer s skin and thewrong side of the inner clothing layer , whichis decided bythe posture of human body , the clothing style and theenvironment situation together . There is close relationshipbetween the air gap and the wearer s subjective comfortsensations . Many scholars studied on the micro-cli matecharacteristics of the air gaps about temperature ,humidity ,ventilation and so on. Different types of micro-cli mate testing devices have been develo…     

Application of Three-dimensional Body Measurement System

The configuration principles and functions of the non-contact three-dimensional （3D） body measurement system （BMS） developed by the Textile/Clothing Technology Corporation （[TC]^2） are described in this paper. The advantages of this new system, compared with traditional contact body measurement instruments （ Martin instruments ） are discussed by selecting 40 female undergraduates of Donghna University as the scan objects. In the experiments both the Martin instruments and [TC]^2 BMS were used respectively. According to the data of different position （Bust Circumference, Full Waist, Full Hips, Bust Height, Front Waist Height and Back Waist Height） obtained from both of the methods we can get the correlation coefficient which is close to 1, indicating that the results of both methods have comparability. Finally some suggestions for the further applications of the non-contact BMS in the apparel development of China are given.     

形状记忆智能织物系统热防护性能评价

为提升热防护服的防护性能，该研究基于形状记忆合金丝，开发了10种形状记忆织物，并构建适用于热防护服的温度响应型智能织物系统，探究相邻合金丝间距、形状记忆织物密度和芳纶纱线种类3个因素对形状记忆智能织物系统热防护性能的影响。结果表明：智能织物系统相较于传统热防护织物系统显著降低了织物内表层的温升速率，延长了温升12℃和温升24℃的时间。当合金丝间距为2 cm且使用芳纶1414织造的形状记忆织物纬密为20根/cm时，形状记忆智能织物系统的热防护性能最优。
