Abstract:

To evaluate skin wetness perception more comprehensively, and make a better understanding on its mechanism, the related research was reviewed. The formation mechanism of skin wetness perception was elaborated from the perspective of neurophysiology and cognitive neuroscience; and the methods of implementing stimulation in testing process were also summarized, as well as evaluation methods at current stage; In addition, factors affecting skin wetness perception were induced from aspects, including external simulation factors of temperature and mechanical simulation and fabric properties and clothing structure, as well as human factors of differences in regional perception and surface features. It holds on that in the future, the contact simulation between the skin and the fabric during clothing should be more realistic and combined with neurophysiology, as well as other disciplines, to deepen the study of the different groups of wetness sensitivity and provide a more theoretical basis for the optimization of clothing design and improvement of clothing comfort.
