In this paper, a procedural method for the visualization of knitted and woven fabrics is presented. The proposed method is compatible with a mass-spring model and makes use of the regular warp–weft structure of the cloth. The visualization parameters for the loops and threads are easily mapped to the animated mass-spring model. The simulation idea underlying both knitted and woven fabrics is si...

Research into real-time simulation applications outside of manufacturing environments has extended to sociotechnical systems such as healthcare over the past decade, where a number published studies have demonstrated proof-of-concept models for near-future resource planning. Using decision-support systems, people take decisions supported by output simulations. However frameworks abstract human ...
