The objective of this paper is to report a study on the prediction of the steady-state thermal resistance of woven compression bandage (WCB) by using three different mathematical models. The experimental samples of WCB were 100% cotton, cotton–polyamide–polyurethane, and viscose–polyurethane. The bandage samples were evaluated at extensions ranging at 10–100%, with two- and three-layer bandaging techniques. Experimental thermal resistance was measured by thermal foot manikin (TFM) and ALAMBETA testing devices. The obtained results by TFM and ALAMBETA were validated and compared with the theoretical models (Maxwell–Eucken2, Schuhmeister, and Militky), and a reasonable correlation of approximately 78%, 92%, and 93% for ALAMBETA and 75%, 82%, and 83% for TFM, respectively, was observed.

The aim of this study was to develop V-shape compression socks that should exert graduated lateral compression around the leg. For the development of socks, three types of yarns: main yarn (MY), plaiting yarn (PY) and inlaid yarn (IY) were used. Each yarn contained spandex yarn as the core. Machine adjustments were optimized to achieve the special V-shaped compression socks according to size of the wooden leg. Eighteen socks samples were developed and quantified for pressure exertion at ankle and calf portions using the MST MKIV, Salzmann pressure measuring device. Consequently, only two socks samples were accepted, which had the pressure exertion values of 21 mmHg and 23 mmHg with graduation percentage of 73% and 80%, respectively.
