Pattern computation for compression garment
Proceedings of the 2008 ACM symposium on Solid and physical modeling, 2008This paper addresses the problem of computing planar patterns for compression garments. In the garment industry, the compression garment has been more and more widely used to retain a shape of human body, where certain strain (or normal pressure) is designed at some places on the compression garment.

The Effects of Compression Garments on Recovery
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2009The purpose of this study was to investigate whether wearing lower-body compression garments attenuate indices of muscle damage and decrements in performance following drop-jump training. Seven trained female and four trained male subjects undertook blood collection for creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), a mid-thigh girth measurement,

Evaluation of a lower-body compression garment
Journal of Sports Sciences, 2003The aims of this study were to determine how custom-fit compression shorts affect athletic performance and to examine the mechanical properties of the shorts. Ten male and 10 female track athletes on a university's nationally competitive track team, specializing in sprint or jump events, participated in the study.
