Study on Effect of Spring Materials on the Comfort of Bed

Article Preview

Abstract:

By selecting different elasticity coefficients, the result of that the pressure distributions on contact human body and human’s subjective feelings were tested. Through analyzing and comparing, the conclusion was reached: 1) different elasticity coefficients of mattresses would affect the comfort on human body; 2) the medium elasticity coefficient of mattresses would provide maximum comfort; 3)the conclusion was validated by both objective test results and human’s subjective feelings.
