    In this study, we used the 2D pear-loop model, which is a sample equivalent to cloth and an external surface, as reported in our past study.
    We attempted to visualize the resultant force applied to each node point during garment simulation using this 2-D model. As a result, we were able to determine whether the garment simulation calculations converged.
    In addition, we visualized gravity, normal and frictional forces, and the gripping force applied to each node point. As a result, we understood the distribution of force applied to the cloth.
    Furthermore, we recorded the total moments at each node point. We were then able to easily determine whether the calculations converged.

    The purpose of this study is to investigate the consciousness in disposal and recycle of clothing in relation to the degree of interest in environment. 153 women college students and 123 their mothers replied to the questionnaire which consists of questions concerning the interest in environment, the disposal and recycle of unused clothing. Questionnaire responses were analyzed by using statistical testing and factor analysis. Respondents were divided into high and low groups of environmental consciousness by the question of interest in environment-friendly goods. A tendency was recognized that the high group used effectually unused clothing comparing with the low group in both students and mothers. There were statistically significant differences between the high and low group's factor score in factor of “improved means against recycle”. It was important to raise the interest in environment to improve recycling stored and unused clothing.
