...Chen Liu; Huafeng Feng Purpose To investigate whether the actual effects of eight drape characteristics of virtual fabrics can be manifested in the Style 3D software. Design/methodology/approach Image analysis was conducted using MATLAB software to obtain the drape characteristics of virtual...

...Evrim Buyukaslan; Simona Jevsnik; Fatma Kalaoglu Purpose The purpose of this paper is to compare real fabric drape images and virtual fabric drape images created by a commercial software. To achieve an in-depth comparison, actual and virtual drape shape properties were considered under three...

...George K. Stylios; Norman J. Powell The drape attributes of fabrics, number of folds, depth of folds and evenness of folds were measured together with the drape coefficient. The relationship between these measurements and the subjective evaluation of the fabric drape was modelled for each end‐use...

... the fabric material properties are related to the measurable mechanical properties of the fabric such as tensile modulus, Poisson's ratio etc. These properties are incorporated into a cloth simulator to produce draping results. The simulated image and real object are then compared to show the realism. ©...

...V. Sidabraite; V. Masteikaite Undesirable effect of asymmetric drape often occurs when cutting patterns of flared skirt on cross. Out of this reason garment seams twist toward the front or back or folds form different shapes on each side of the garment and this lowers garment aesthetic appearance...

...Xiaoqun Dai; Takao Furukawa; Shigeru Mitsui; Masayuki Takatera; Yoshio Shimizu Drape is a characteristic behaviour of flexible cloth, so it is important in modelling cloth. The paper introduces a novel method to model drape using a few shape parameters, predicted according to the pattern structure...

...D.X. Gong; B.K. Hinds; J. McCartney The requirements in CAD modelling of garments are first considered and alternative user interfaces are considered. Features which occur in block patterns and for which accurate simulation is required are identified. An energy based modeller, developed for drape...

...I. Frydrych; G. Dziworska; A. Cieślińska The aim of this contribution is to answer the question if and how mechanical fabric parameters being components of a formability coefficient as well as mechanical parameters being components of fabric handle influence the fabric drape. Therefore, all...

...Hartmut Rödel; Volker Ulbricht; Sybille Krzywinski; Andrea Schenk; Petra Fischer In this paper a model is presented for the calculation by approximation of a drape test standardized in the textile industry. As woven fabric is of low thickness compared with the other dimensions, the fabric can...
