Pressure Distribution Measurement of Close Fitting Clothes on Human Body

摘要

The article introduces research of non-invasive techniques used for measuring of pressure distribution on human skin by the wearing very tight and close fitting clothes. This fact may lead to significant health complications, because long-term constricting of tissue restricts fluid movement around tissue cells which may cause creation of neoplasm. Especially occurrence of tumour in the women breast is diagnosed with ascending tendency. From these reasons was performed research in the area of possible techniques for noninvasive measurement of forces and corresponding pressures on a human skin. Our goal in this part of research was to find the way to measure the pressure distribution between the clothes and the human skin. Through comparison of the results from different devices, the techniques and their potential application was evaluated for future experiments. In addition, we pointed out the weak points and disadvantages of these measurement methods.
