abstract = {<p>Elder women often suffer from chest pain and pressure discomfort due to breast displacement during
exercise. To design functional sports bras that will mitigate chest pain and pressure discomfort under
dynamic conditions, a survey was completed to find out the bra design special requirements and simulation
experiments were carried out to investigate breast displacement rules. A standard sized running woman
was selected as a subject to determine the typical breast movement positions, and an elder woman
avatar was used to simulate the breast displacement. The results showed that by dividing the bra into
different functional areas, the breast movement postures can be generated on the virtual model and
this method could be applied to develop ergonomic sports bras that can limit the breast movement for
elder females. Approaches involved in this research are also suitable to design sportswear with specific
functional requirements for various age women.</p>},
