The response of the forearm skin to a 9 9 10 3 N. m torque was measured on 141 subjects aged 3-89 years. The results for each age class were ajusted to a skin thickness of 1 mm by use ofa skinfold caliper. Results indicate a maximum skin thickness around the age of 40 years. Standardised skin extens
Knowledge about the human skin mechanical properties is essential in several domains, particularly for dermatology, cosmetic or to detect some cutaneous pathology. This study proposes a new method to determine the human skin mechanical properties in vivo using the indentation test. Usually, the skin
