“…Since clothing pressure largely depended on its biaxial extension and stress relaxation properties [81], research studies have been conducted to find the relationship between the clothing pressure of knitted fabrics and stress under extension and recovery processes [82,83]. The pressure behavior of tubular knitted elastic fabrics at different extension levels during 48 hours was investigated and it was found that the stitch length and extension rate are the vital factors that affects the interfacial pressure and pressure reduction [84].…”

Compression garments are elastic clothing with an engineered compression gradient that can be worn on limbs, upper, lower, or full body to use for therapy and sports. This article presents an overview and review on the compression garments and concentrates on the design of compression garments with an appropriate pressure for specific applications. It covers the types of compression garments, fibers and yarns, knitted fabric construction, garment design, an evaluation system, and pressure measurement and modeling. The material properties, fabric properties, pressure modeling, and the garment design system presents the prediction, design, and fabrication of the compression garments. Lastly, the research status and directions are discussed.

In some cases, the value of clothing pressure on the human body is more than desired which results in discomfort, especially for those designed for infants, aged people and professionals. In order to reduce the pressure so that it is at a comfortable level, this investigation developed a knitted fabric with ultra-low modulus based on the geometrical deformation mechanism. Experimental results show that the tensile deformation is due to the geometrical deformation and physical deformation. This paper focuses on the former, which is greatly improved by reknitting of the unroved yarn with remarkable crimps. The tensile results indicate that compared with the normally rib-knitted fabric, which the elongation of the reknitted fabric reaches at 50%, the tensile modulus decreases by 96%. It is proved that increasing the geometrical deformation is an effective method for reducing the elastic modulus. In addition, the pressure of men's cotton socks and ladies' stocking and tights on skin is measured. Experimental results show that the value of the pressure is as high as 2.959 kPa, which far exceeds the comfort pressure threshold of 0.667 kPa. Furthermore, this paper also studies the application of this developed reknitted fabric. The study of geometrical deformation mechanism-based ultra-low-modulus fabrics with knitting of the yarn with remarkable crimps has important significance, and provides scientific guidance for improving clothing pressure.

This paper describes the first part of a study for obtaining useful data on the development of compression garments with high stretch knitted materials. Twenty types of compression garments sold in the domestic market were analyzed in terms of the knitting method and knit structure. After classifying these garment types into three elements of knit structure, a comparative analysis of the body part to which knit structure is applied was performed. Given the superior comfort of its finished product and seamless process productivity, the weft knitting technique was used more commonly than the warp knitting technique. All extracted knit structures were single-faced, and float and tuck were variously applied based on plain stitch. Plain stitch was applied on smooth body part surfaces, which do not require much compression. In the case of body parts that easily accumulate mass, such as the lower abdomen and sides, plain with float stitch was used by employing a mock rib structure to exert appropriate pressure on body and ensure a good fit. However, on body parts requiring a strong fit and pressure along with protection, plain with float stitch was used. Meanwhile, the structure in which float and tuck were combined based on plain stitch was applied for body parts with active muscles.
