Ink footprint images with MLP models predict plantar pressure for diabetic insoles, streamlining assessment and aiding clinicians in material recommendations.

3D-printed chiral NPR midsoles enhance shock absorption, comfort, and biomechanical performance, reducing forefoot stress and improving running shoe design.

Modal blended fabric outperformed polyester in comfort despite weaker moisture transfer. Future research should explore fabric structures for enhanced comfort.

Compression garments support athletes during single-leg landings, reducing impact forces. This study examines how varying CG lengths affect stability and joint movement.

Jumping demands significant foot and lower limb effort, often causing fatigue and injury. The foot arch is vital for energy storage and release, while arch supports in foot orthoses provide stability. This study explores how differing arch support designs impact landing performance, addressing the research gap on energy dynamics in high-performance sports.

This study investigates the thermal comfort of five types of anti-vibration gloves that use chloroprene rubber and spacer fabric as materials to isolate vibration. An evaluation of the fabric and material on the palm and dorsal of the glove, and a wear trial of the gloves were subsequently carried out.
