Creating garments that work with the human form, both stationary and in motion, is a complex task that requires extensive testing and evaluation. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eManikins allow for performance testing of textiles in a safe, controlled, and appropriate environment, and are a key element in developing new textile products. Everyday apparel needs to be assessed for comfort, sizing and fit, and ergonomics, while technical and protective garments require extensive safety and performance testing. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eManikins therefore range from simple representations of the human body to complex designs that simulate body temperature, sweating, and motion. Manikins are safe for use in hazardous testing environments, such as fire and flame protection, where wearer trials would be impossible. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book provides extensive coverage of manikin-based evaluation of protective, heat and flame resistant, medical, and automotive textile applications.
