Abstract
There are many materials which are used close to humans and cause interactions between the material property and human sensibility. Polymers are such materials, a typical example being clothing material made of organic fibers (Figure 7.1). Although the strength and durability of the material are important in utility performance, the fitting of material properties with humans is more important with clothing material.
