Abstract(s)

For a suitable development of wearable equipment, it is important to take in consideration comfort issues, and the simulation of the contact between is the adequate tool. To simulate the contact a preliminary study an empirical models were developed using non-linear fitting. The data was collected using compression and decompression tests using different indenter’s diameters in one subject.
