Book Physically Based Simulation of Various Fabrics with Multi level Modeling

Download or read book Physically Based Simulation of Various Fabrics with Multi level Modeling written by Di Cao and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cloth simulation has been studied in computer graphics since the early 1980’s. It has been widely applied as special effects in feature-length films as well as animated movies, virtual fitting, costume design, etc. Textile fibers, yarns and fabric structure are considered to be interdependent in the production of fabric and together they decide the internal mechanical properties. Unfortunately, the currently popular mass-spring model describes the relationship between knot and yarn as a simple linear mass-spring system. Although simple to code and fast to execute, it is neither stable nor an accurate mathematical approximation to the real-world cloth deformations, even though it partially represents the cloth knot-yarn structure. The other main approach to cloth modeling is the finite element method. This approach models the whole piece of cloth as a continuous sheet, discretized into many small elements (often, triangles). However, the flat sheet structure only considers the shape and it ignores all yarn-level details (yarn twist, yarn slip, woven structure, etc.), which limit its accuracy even when a better data-driven stiffness model is used. Our new model is inspired by King et al. [55] and generated by modifying the existing FEM. Unlike the existing FEM, our model incorporates the knot-yarn details by paying attention to microscopic (fibers), mesoscopic (yarns) and macroscopic (fabric structure) aspects of cloth construction. On a macroscopic level, the unit element is a second order nine-node quadrilateral rather than a linear three-node typical triangle of the FEM. A linear combination of functions (shape functions) of each node is used to interpolate the deformation gradient of any point within the element to solve the differential equations governing the cloth’s motion. The strain-stress (stiffness) model used in the FEM approaches is replaced by a discrete physical stress tensor model describing the yarn-yarn crossover structure. The stress is calculated analytically from the microscopic forces such as the yarn stretch and the mesoscopic forces including yarn shear, uncrimping, and locking due to the yarn structure. We then apply the Gaussian quadrature rule to do the interpolation and homogenize over the element surface to get the force on each of the nine nodes. We present a new fabric system with better nonlinearity and anisotropy, faster computation and more realistic simulation. Results show that our new cloth model has advantages over the existing models particularly with regard to producing more natural looking wrinkles and folds.

Book Cloth Simulation for Computer Graphics

Download or read book Cloth Simulation for Computer Graphics written by Tuur Stuyck and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-24 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physics-based animation is commonplace in animated feature films and even special effects for live-action movies. Think about a recent movie and there will be some sort of special effects such as explosions or virtual worlds. Cloth simulation is no different and is ubiquitous because most virtual characters (hopefully!) wear some sort of clothing. The focus of this book is physics-based cloth simulation. We start by providing background information and discuss a range of applications. This book provides explanations of multiple cloth simulation techniques. More specifically, we start with the most simple explicitly integrated mass-spring model and gradually work our way up to more complex and commonly used implicitly integrated continuum techniques in state-of-the-art implementations. We give an intuitive explanation of the techniques and give additional information on how to efficiently implement them on a computer. This book discusses explicit and implicit integration schemes for cloth simulation modeled with mass-spring systems. In addition to this simple model, we explain the more advanced continuum-inspired cloth model introduced in the seminal work of Baraff and Witkin [1998]. This method is commonly used in industry. We also explain recent work by Liu et al. [2013] that provides a technique to obtain fast simulations. In addition to these simulation approaches, we discuss how cloth simulations can be art directed for stylized animations based on the work of Wojtan et al. [2006]. Controllability is an essential component of a feature animation film production pipeline. We conclude by pointing the reader to more advanced techniques.
