Progress towards effective garment CAD

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…

Drape formation based on geometric constraints and its application to skirt modelling

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…

Geometrical modelling of garments

Yves Chiricota, Olivier Cochaux, André Provost

This paper describes a method for fast three‐dimensional approximation of clothing from flat patterns. The pictures obtained are closely related to technical sketches used in the…

Simulation of seam pucker on two strips of fabric sewn together

S. Inui, H. Okabe, T. Yamaraka

In our previous study, seam pucker simulation baased on mechancial calculation was proposed. Here, the simulation system is extended to consider collision between fabrics and seam…

A remote, on‐line 3‐D human measurement and reconstruction approach for virtual wearer trials in global retailing

G.K. Stylios, F. Han, T.R. Wan

A powerful 3‐D system has been developed for on‐line 3‐D human measurement and reconstruction that interferes with a SQL Server database for virtual wearer trials in global…
