Abstract

To reduce slippage between the sensing module mounted on the tight-fitting clothing and the human skin during body movement, the clothing was optimized by numerical simulation. Firstly, solid models of the upper body and the sleeveless tight-fitting clothing were established using the reverse engineering software Geomagic Studio. Secondly, the sleeveless tight-fitting clothing was cut and segmented by the structural style of the tight-fitting clothing and the range of the skin deformation in each area. Finally, taking the running movement of the body as an example, the finite element analysis platform ANSYS Workbench was used to study the position change of sensing module mounting points relative to the human skin when different elastic fabrics were combined into the clothing. The results showed that when fabrics with higher elasticity were selected for front and back pieces and fabrics with lower elasticity were selected for shoulder and side pieces, the slippage between the sensing module and the human skin was smaller.
