    Notes: 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. It is therefore desirable to predict the girdle's pressure instead of the direct measurement on human subjects. The method may be used by manufacturers of girdles as well as by consumers.

    Notes: Purpose - The paper discusses the prediction of shirt patterns for different body sizes using multiple linear regression (MLR).Design/methodology/approach - A total of 29 pattern parameters from men's tailor-made shirt and 34 body parameters obtained from a body scanner were designed for analysis. MLR has been applied to examine the underlying relationship between shirt pattern parameters and body measurements.Findings– Compared with formulae from the pattern expert, the prediction of shirt pattern from MLR has been improved.Originality/value - The findings could help to predict pattern size with different body sizes more accurately.

    Notes: A scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used for observing the microstructures of aMactridae shell. It showed that the shell is a kind of natural bioceramic composite, which consists ofaragonite sheets and organic matrix with laminated structure. It also showed that there are variousreinforced microstructures in the shell, which include a kind of lambdoidal one. The maximumpullout force of the lambdoidal reinforced microstructure, which is related to the fracture toughness ofthe shell, was analyzed and compared with that of a conventional 0°-structure based on theirrepresentative models. The result indicated that the maximum pullout force of the lambdoidalreinforced microstructure is markedly larger than that of the 0°-structure, which was experimentallyverified
