Abstract:

The establishment of a three-dimensional model of the human neck is a prerequisite for studying interaction between the collar and the neck as the basis for predicting the neck clothing pressure and optimization of the clothing collar design. 20 young men with similar neck type were selected based on the neck morphological classifcation of 200 on-the-job men; 40 cross-section point cloud figure of necks between the occipital bone and neck root by using a three-dimensional body scanner; and then coordinates of the neck section by MATLAB processing. The  three-dimensional coordinates of the neck section were input to SolidWorks, and the neck skin layer three-dimensional model can be output. Using the same method a three-dimensional neck model containing a skeletal layer and a soft tissue layer was established, and the relationship between the clothing pressure and the curvature were used to verify the model. The analysis results show the effectiveness of the three-dimensional neck model, which provides a certain theoretical reference for the prediction of the clothing pressure and the clothing collar design.
