  • Title: Highly mobile space suit material optimization.
    Author: Main JA, Peterson SW, Strauss AM.
    Journal: Acta Astronaut; 1995 Jul; 36(1):73-9. PubMed ID: 11541317.
    Abstract:
    This paper discusses the factors that control the flexibility of fabric space suit elements by examining a bending model of a pressurized fabric tube. Results from the model are used to evaluate the current direction in highly mobile EVA glove research and suggest that changes are necessary in the suit and glove fabric selection methodology.
