Abstract

A new motivation for mathematical clothing modeling, namely to quantify the impact of clothing on digital human models in virtual environments, is discussed. After a brief review of previous mathematical clothing modeling works, a nonlinear finite element approach with contact is exercised with good results on a variety of draping problems. A micromechanical approach for predicting fabric effective mechanical properties based on fiber properties and texture is proposed.
