An investigation of the structure of sizing systems: A comparison of three multidimensional optimized sizing systems generated from anthropometric data with the ASTM standard D5585‐94
TL;DR: This paper used nonlinear optimization methods and anthropometric data of US Army women to derive three multidimensional sizing systems that are designed to provide improved fit for women from the USA, a population with much variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
An optimisation approach to apparel sizing
TL;DR: Results of this analysis show that endogenous size assignment and selection of disaccommodated individuals, together with relaxation of the requirement of a ‘stepwise’ size structure, results in substantial improvements in fit over an existing sizing system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environment, Design, and Obesity Opportunities for Interdisciplinary Collaborative Research
TL;DR: In this article, the authors adopt the notion that the environment constitutes the space outside the person and therefore broaden the common conceptualization of the environment to encompass a full spectrum from small-scale design elements to large-scale community infrastructure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Susan P. Ashdown,Lucy E. Dunne +1 more
TL;DR: Questions related to measurement reliability and validity, data and knowledge needed to create and test required system variables, andfit preference issues were addressed in this study.
Size-specific Analysis of Body Scan Data to Improve Apparel Fit
TL;DR: This paper describes how size-specific analyses of body scan data of an apparel company's target market can provide information that can be used to adjust ready-to-wear sizing to improve apparel fit.
