Classification of Lower Body Proportion Characteristics of Female University Students in Central China
This study is to obtain the lower body proportion types of female university students in Central China.and to provide a parameter basis for corresponding personalized women's pants structure proportional design.A total of 27 lower body morphol-ogical characteristics parameters were obtained by taking 156 female university students aged 18-22 years old as measurement ob-jects,combining photo measurement,3D cross-sectional overlap image measurement and calculation items.Through principal component analysis,six lower body morphological characteristics influencing factors were extracted,and the cumulative contri-bution rate reached 91.821%.And four lower body proportional characteristics subdivision indexes were screened based on the loading coefficients,which were front-to-back outer surround thickness ratio(FBLOD),waist length and crotch length ratio(WLSE),perineal height and waist height ratio(PWH)and knee height to inside length ratio(KHPL).K-means cluster analysis was performed on the subdivision indexes to obtain 4 lower body proportional characteristics subdivision types A-D,and type B was determined as the typical proportional characteristics type based on the distribution ratio of samples of each type.The propor-tional structure of the basic type of pants was optimized by using type B proportional characteristics parameters,and the comfort of the adjusted basic type pants was effectively improved by Style 3D virtual trial comfort test.
