An analytical model and the corresponding experimental procedure are presented, which make it possible to separately analyze the viscous and elastic components of human hair. Moreover, a computerized experimental system is described with which a standardized quantitative determination of the most important mechanical parameters of human hair can be performed. Comparative investigations of the mechanical behavior of hair specimens obtained from the frontoparietal and occipital scalp regions of 10 healthy human subjects showed no statistically significant differences with regard to their mechanical parameters. Nevertheless, the paired analysis of the mechanical parameters of thin and thick hair specimens revealed that the values of two of these parameters are significantly higher in thin than in thick hair specimens. These findings suggest that there are mechanical parameters of human hair related to gross hair morphology, whereas others depend on hair microstructure.
本文提出了一种分析模型及相应的实验方法，可分别分析人发的粘性和弹性成分。此外，还描述了一种计算机化实验系统，利用该系统可对人发最重要的力学参数进行标准化定量测定。对10名健康受试者额顶和枕部头皮区域获取的毛发样本的力学行为进行的比较研究表明，其力学参数在统计学上无显著差异。然而，对细发和粗发样本力学参数的配对分析显示，其中两个参数的值在细发样本中显著高于粗发样本。这些发现表明，人发的力学参数有些与毛发总体形态有关，而另一些则取决于毛发微观结构。
