What is Prediction of Girdle's Pressure on Human Body from the Pressure Measurement on a Dummy about?
## Purpose This paper reports on the development of a method for the prediction of clothing pressure of girdles on the human body. ## Design/methodology/approach In this paper, we propose to use a standard mannequin dummy to measure the clothing pressure of girdles and from which to predict the pressure on the different human body. An improved mathematical programming method for numerical simulation of cloth wrinkling is investigated. ## Findings In general, the prediction equations of the model are effective in estimating the clothing pressure on the human body from the clothing pressure on a standard mannequin dummy. ## Practical implications The method may be used by the manufacturers of girdles to test their products on a dummy to see whether the pressure distribution is satisfactory to the targeted group of consumers. It can also be used by consumers to assess the suitability of girdles based on the estimated clothing pressure, which may be predicted from the pressure pre‐tested on a dummy and the consumer's body characteristics. ## Originality/value Direct measurement of clothing pressure on human body for the evaluation of pressure garments is time consuming, expensive.
