中文摘要：

学期“柔软”泛泛地被用来描述织物和其它的物理以及感觉的属性纺织品，和几个 psychophysical 评估方法以及它的预言的方程存在。然而，为织物柔软的生理的机制的信息是缺乏。为探索织物柔软解释 biomechanical 和潜在的 neurophysiological 现象，为柔软和人的手指的解剖多层的结构在用手的探索伴随到过程，在手指和织物之间的有限元素(FE ) 模型被做进行活跃接触分析的接触。在现在的 FE 模型，表面磨擦索引的效果，压缩模量，泊松柔软辨别上的织物的比率被调查。兴趣在这些织物性质变量的贡献联系区域，界面的磨擦砍应力和接触迫使分布，它在外部神经层次是重要认知变量或刺激参数。为织物标本的机械学的数据显示柔软的感觉的基础灵活并且体积织物在皮肤上的压力的空间变化上是可能的(或，相等地皮肤排水量和它的衍生物) 源于表面磨擦现象和织物的压缩性质。不统计上在然而，泊松全部的力量上的比率的效果由指尖施加了的现在的模型是重要的。因此，织物的压缩模量是，不是为外部神经反应的唯一的内在的物理可变财务，并且也，表面磨擦现象在织物的 feeltouch 柔软起一个重要作用，即织物的压缩的可能性和表面性质是为它的柔软的触觉的显示包含的必要物理变量。

英文摘要：

The term ＂softness＂ is loosely used to describe the physical as well as sensory attributes of fabric and other textiles, and several psychophysicai evaluation methods as well as its predicting equations exist. However, the information for physiological mechanism of fabric softness is lack. To explain the blomechauical and the potential neurophysiologicai phecnomenon for exploring fabric softness, accompanying to the procedures in manual exploration for softness and the anatomical multllayor structures of human finer, a contact finite dement （FE） model between finger and fabric is made to conduct an active contact analysis. In present FE model, the effect of surface friction index, compression modulus, Poisson＇s ratio of fabric on softness dlscrimination is Investigated. The interests are in the contributlons of these fabric property variables to contact area, Interracial friction shear stress and contact pressure distributions, which arc significant cognitive variables or stimulus parameters in peripheral neural levels. The mechanistic data for fabric specimens indicates that the basis for the perception of softness of flexible and bulk fabric is likely on the spatial variation of pressure on the skin （or, equivalently the skin displacement and its derivatives） resulting from surface friction phenomenon and compression property of fabric. In present model, however, the effect of Poisson＇s ratio on the total force exerted by fingertip is not significant statistically. Therefore, compression modulus of fabric is, not the only underlying physical variable accounting for peripheral neural response, and also the surface friction phenomenon plays an important role in feeltouch softness of fabric, i.e. the compressibility and surface properties of fabric arc the necessary physical variables involved for the haptic rendering of its softness.
