The Second Joint International Conference Clothing-Body Interaction 2023 is organized by the teams of Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Yordan Kyosev, Chair of Assembly Technology for Textile Products, ITM, TU Dresden, Germany; Prof. Dr. Lukas Capek, Regional Hospital in Liberec and Department of the Technologies and Structures, Technical University Liberec, Czech Republic and the team of Instituto de Biomécanica (IBV), Universitat Politècnica de València, VALENCIA, Spain. The conference is planned as LIVE event in Berlin, in the Huricane Factory. Online streaming for pure online participants will be possible.

It aims to provide a platform for the exchange between the researchers and industrials in the area of the complex interactions between the human body and clothing. The engineering development of textile products requires application of interdisciplinary approaches in order to satisfy the high requirements in several areas. The deep analysis of a “standard topic” like the comfort of daily clothing requires knowledge and consideration of heat and moisture transfer, body metabolism, air gap between body and clothing, body deformations during the motion, moisture absorbtion of the textile layers. For functional clothing additional interactions of acting mechanical, chemical or other forces are coming. The conference provides unique platform for exchange between the leading experts, researchers and companies in the areas of these interactions.
