This study suggests using a manikin with soft breast prostheses and a robotic arm for reliable breast motion testing, improving consistency in evaluating sports bras’ support levels. This innovative approach mimics human dynamics effectively.

This study explores enhancing weft-knitted spacer fabrics with inlays for superior force absorption, stress-strain, and thermal properties, outperforming traditional materials. Inlay yarn and structure are key to improved protective clothing design.

4D scanning reveals dynamic breast deformation during treadmill walking, offering insights to improve sports bras for better support and comfort.

3D-knitted sports bras for adolescents adapt to breast growth, ensuring comfort and protection, promoting confidence and an active lifestyle during puberty.

Breast measurement presents a complex challenge in the design of sports bras, particularly for adolescent girls whose bodies are rapidly changing. This study aimed to explore breast anthropometry among adolescents. The study revealed a significant knowledge gap, with only 8.7% having had a bra fitting and less than half knowing how to determine their bra […]
