Abstract

Optimum-designed footwear with polyurethane (PU) material for comfort is an important requirement for obese. Investigations on compressive behavior of varied designed footwear using 120 D PU material have been carried out. The energy absorption primarily depends on heel height, slope angle and load applied or body mass index of obese. Statistical analysis has been used to formulate the prediction of absorbed energy wherein a heel height of 30 mm with 20-degree angle provides optimum value with the incorporation of 120 D PU material. A coefficientof- determination (R2) value of 0.9406 confirms the suitability of the statistical regression model. Hence, the optimally designed footwear for higher energy absorption with 120 D PU foam material is recommendable for obese.

肥胖鞋用PU发泡材料压缩载荷特性研究

采用聚氨酯(PU)材料设计的舒适鞋是肥胖的重要要求。采用120d PU材料对不同设计鞋履的压缩性能进行了研究。人体对能量的吸收主要取决于足跟高度、坡度角度和所施加的负荷或肥胖者的身体质量指数。统计分析已被用于制定吸收能量的预测，其中30毫米的鞋跟高度，20度角提供了最优值与120 D PU材料的掺入。决定系数(R2)为0.9406，证实了统计回归模型的适宜性。因此，采用120d PU发泡材料设计的高吸能鞋是肥胖人士的理想选择。
