Optimum design of outdoor workwear for ecological protection in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau area
To establish a distinct design approach for ecological protection outdoor workwear in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau region,the environmental characteristics and job requirements of ecological protection work in the region,as well as the performance needs of the workwear was analyzed.Subsequently,existing design issues and optimization demands were identified through expert interviews.Furthermore,a questionnaire survey and Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)are employed to prioritize the functional design elements of outdoor workwear,considering various design requirements and resolving conflicts between functionality and comfort.The design elements and garment categories were then divided,and design proposals were presented as references.This paper provides practical insights and design references for designers in developing specific high-altitude ecological outdoor workwear to meet special working conditions and requirements.It also offers a method for optimizing the functional design elements of outdoor workwear.
