Tearing Simulation using Length-Constrained Yarn Models

Simulation of Tearing Cloth with Frayed Edges

Woven cloth can commonly be seen in daily life and also in animation. Unless prevented in some way, woven cloth usually frays at the edges. However, in computer graphics, woven cloth is typically modeled as a continuum sheet, which is not suitable for representing frays. This paper proposes a model that allows yarn movement and slippage during cloth tearing. Drawing upon techniques from textile...

Investigation of the Tearing Performance of Fabrics with Various Constructions, Woven from Different Yarn Spinning Systems

Dissipation Potentials for Yarn-Level Cloth

Damping is a critical phenomenon in determining the dynamic behavior of animated objects. For yarn-level cloth models, setting the correct damping behavior is particularly complicated, because common damping models in computer graphics do not account for the mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian discretization of efficient yarn-level models. In this paper, we show how to derive a damping model for yarn-lev...

Novel Method for Dynamic Yarn Tension Measurement and Control in Direct Cabling Process

SHANKAM NARAYANA, VIVEK PRASAD. Novel Method for Dynamic Yarn Tension Measurement and Control in Direct Cabling Process. (Under the directions of Dr. William Oxenham, Dr. Abdelfattah Seyam and Dr. Edward Grant). Yarn tension control is an important parameter for quality and efficiency in textile processes. It has a significant influence on productivity in various processes such as winding, twis...

Determination of the Diameter Spectrogram and Neps for Yarn Parameterization using Image Processing

This paper illustrates the development of a system to measure the variation in yarn parameters using image processing with the help of a low cost USB web camera along with a yarn moving arrangement. The complete system comprises of yarn guides and tension control device, motor with gear box, monitor for displaying yarn parameters etc. The system enables to develop yarn diameter spectrogram and ...
