The finite element method simulation was used to model the tension at different vertical and horizontal positions of the fabric as a spring array, to calculate the fabric movements at each position over time when a twisting force was applied and enable comparison with experiments. When observing the fabric movement due to the twist motion with actual fabrics, silk showed the greatest movement, followed by cotton and linen. Cotton experienced decreasing force from the top to the bottom, with increased amplitude at the bottom due to fluttering caused by the bottom not being fixed. When examining the fabric movement according to the velocity, slower velocity did not effectively transmit twist force to the bottom, while faster velocity resulted in more small movements. The analysis revealed that greater force at faster velocity led to better dust removal performance. Therefore, for efficient dust removal, the force transmitted to the fabric should be increased. Most dust is removed within the first 10 min, so exerting a strong force for a short duration is important.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":555,"journal":{"name":"Fashion and Textiles","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://fashionandtextiles.springeropen.com/counter/pdf/10.1186/s40691-024-00400-z","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142397563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The midsoles were designed with three densities of Tyson polygon (TS) structures: 1TS, 2TS, and 3TS. Plantar pressure tests were conducted on midsoles during static and dynamic motions such as walking, running, and jumping. The data were analyzed based on hypotheses related to samples, motions, and 10 plantar pressure zones. As results, for static motion, all midsoles improved pressure distribution and reduced peak pressure compared to barefoot conditions, with 1TS being the most effective. During dynamic motions, 1TS and 2TS effectively distributed plantar pressure in the midfoot and heel areas, while 3TS provided better support and stability during high-intensity activities like jumping. Statistical analysis revealed that 1TS offered comfort and flexibility but lacked support, 2TS balanced support and cushioning, and 3TS provided superior support and stability but reduced elasticity during jumps. In dynamic motions, 1TS excelled in walking, and 2TS performed best in high-intensity activities such as running and jumping. In the meta areas (M2 and M3), 1TS reduced pressure by over 30% during walking and nearly 40% during running, while 3TS showed similar reductions during jumping, with BF showing higher pressures compared to running. Thus, this study highlights the effectiveness of 1TS and 2TS in reducing pressure in the meta and midfoot areas, emphasizing the importance of selecting the right midsole density for optimal comfort and performance across different activities.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":555,"journal":{"name":"Fashion and Textiles","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://fashionandtextiles.springeropen.com/counter/pdf/10.1186/s40691-024-00402-x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142329424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to develop an ergonomic method for drafting glove patterns intended for hand-assistive devices. To facilitate pattern development, we acquired three-dimensional (3D) scan data from the four hemiplegic patients while their hands were in a relaxed posture, which was subsequently transformed into two-dimensional (2D) data. Based on the 3D shape data, we analyzed the finger joint range of motion (ROM) and change ratio of skin surface length resulting from flexion and extension movements of the paralyzed hand. Incisions were strategically applied to regions displaying significant variations in these parameters. These flattened 2D patterns were then integrated into revised pattern blocks to enhance the shading data related to the 3D shape, resulting in the development of four glove patterns. We found that gloves prototyped using this innovative pattern-drafting method did not impede joint ROM when worn. Changes in clothing pressure inside the glove at the joints corresponded to the bending angles of the fingers, and the pressure did not exceed the discomfort threshold during hand flexion and extension movements. Importantly, participants provided positive subjective feedback concerning the comfort of the gloves.

To do this, we conducted data mining, which involved three main steps: data preprocessing, specifically converting image data (including images from the 2022 F/W season runway collection, fashion influencer outfits, and best items from online fashion retailers) into textual data; data mining analysis (quantitative analysis); and data post-processing. As a result, we found that even items with low or no appearance on the runway held significance in the best item data or fashion influencer outfits. Specifically, the best items on online fashion retailers, reflecting popular fashion trends, had greater similarity to fashion influencer outfits. However, similarities in silhouette attributes were found among runway collections, fashion influencer outfits, and best items data. This study holds great significance because it focuses on fashion items genuinely consumed by the mainstream consumers rather than only focusing on the four major runway collections.
