Abstract Most of the cloth simulation and modelling techniques rely on the energy function of thesystem The geometric deformation is related to the energy function by the fabric materialcharacteristics which are usually difregcult to measure directly This paper discusses how the fabricmaterial properties are related to the measurable mechanical properties of the fabric such as tensilemodulus Poissonrsquos ratio etc These properties are incorporated into a cloth simulator to producedraping results The simulated image and real object are then compared to show the realism
IntroductionCloth modelling has received considerable attention recently The applicationsof this modelling technique are mainly for graphic and engineering purposeBoth visual realism and physical accuracy are of equal interest in these tworegelds A lot of researches about cloth modelling have been conducted whichmainly focuses on developing physically based models for the cloth objectThese models can be classireged into two categories the continuum model anddiscrete model For continuum model the fabric is considered as continuousobject with mass and energies distributed throughout The governingequations are derived from the variational principle For the discrete model theobject is modelled as a collection of point masses with some relations amongeach other A cloth model can be continuous or discrete but the computationalmethods are ultimately discrete (Gibson and Miritich 1997) In addition thesemodels always possess certain physical quantities particularly thedeformation energy which is deregned to afford simulation algorithms

Literature review for cloth modellingThe deformable surface proposed by Teropoulos and Fleischer (1988) is atypical continuum model for the cloth Furthermore various approaches(Chen et al 1999 Teropoulos and Fleischer 1988 Volino et al 1995) arediscussed to deregne the potential energy of a deformable model The regnalequilibrium state of the model is obtained by minimizing the potential energywith respect to the material displacements Finite element method (Eischen andClapp 1996 Tan et al 1999) is also used to regnd an approximation for acontinuous function that satisreges the equilibrium expression
Particle system (Breen et al 1992 1994 Eberhardt et al 1996) is a typicalexample of the discrete model for modelling of cloth The cloth is representedby a set of particles The energies of each particle are deregned The regnalequilibrium shape of the cloth occurs at the minimum energy of the wholeparticle system Mass-spring system is another example of the discrete modelfor cloth object (Howelett 1997 Provot 1995) The cloth is modelled as acollection of point masses connected by springs in a lattice structure This is asigniregcant approximation of the true physics that occurs in the cloth Thecurrent status in cloth modelling and animation research can be found inVolino and Magnenat-Thalmann (2000)
Recently cloth modelling tends to focus on two major areas
(1) Incorporating fabric property into the cloth model to give an accurateand realistic simulation (Breen et al 1992 1994 Eberhardt et al 1996)
(2) Improving the computational efregciency to give a fast simulation(Baraff and Witkin 1998)
Both are crucial in simulating the cloth since the demand of accuracy realismand fast computation is increasing for engineering and graphic animation
ObjectiveIt can be seen that most of the cloth modelling techniques rely on the energyfunction of the system The geometric deformation is related to the energyfunction by the fabric material characteristics which are usually difregcult tomeasure directly
Kawabata Evaluation system (Kawabata 1975) is a common equipment tomeasure the mechanical properties of a fabric Breen et al (1994) proposed amethod to derive the energy equations of the cloth model from fabricmeasurement data produced by the Kawabata Evaluation System Firstlya function is determined to approximate the Kawabata plots Then theapproximate function is related to the energy function of the model Lastly theresulting equations are scaled to produce energy values in standard physicalunits Eischen and Bigliani (2000) used a regfth order polynomial to approximatethe Kawabata plot and regtted the approximation into the constitutive equationsto obtain the elastic constants of the fabric

This paper discusses the characteristics of the fabric material in terms of aset of measurable mechanical properties These properties are incorporated intoa continuum model for draping simulation and the results are then comparedwith the actual situations
Cloth draping simulationFigure 1 shows the pseudo-codes of a cloth draping simulator based onTeropoulos and Fleischer (1988) continuum model The state of a cloth elementis described by its position x and velocity Ccedilx Based on this state the clothdeformation is deregned For instance the metric and curvature tensors are thetypical deformation measurements The behaviours of the cloth arecharacterized by the strain energy due to the deformation Furthermoreinternal forces are induced because of this strain energy Applying thefundamental laws of dynamics such as Newtonrsquos second law of motion on theseelements the acceleration x is obtained which is used to calculate the new stateof the element for the next time step through numerical integration Once thenew state is computed collision detection is performed Basically there are twotypes of collision detection called cloth self-collision and cloth object collisionIf the collision is detected at the new state the new state will be given up

and collision responses are imposed as constraints at that instant Bothcollision detection and response are implemented as separate module in thesimulator for easy software management
Mechanical properties of fabric materialThe mechanical properties of a fabric material are measured by the KawabataEvaluation System under the assumption that fabric is anisotropic andorthotropic in warp and weft directions Three basic tests are performedtensile shear and bending test Figure 2 shows the plotting of the tensile andbending test of a fabric sample with 60 per cent wool and 40 per cent polyester
The mechanical behaviours of the cloth are governed by the strain energyaccumulated due to deformation Two main deformations occur in clothdraping metric deformation due to in-plane forces and curvature deformationdue to out-of-plane forces The strain energy density U is written as
U = 1=2

where lab is the strain tensor due to deformation and C abgd is the elasticmodulus tensors a b g and d are indices to denote the directions of theprinciple axes
Pis the aggregation of the strain energies due to metric and
curvature deformationThe elastic modulus tensors C abdg are symmetric tensors hence
C abdg = C abgd = C badg = C dgab (2)
When the warp and weft directions coincide with the principle coordinatesystem of the fabric C 1112 = C 1211 = C 1222 = C 2212 = 0 and only regvecomponents of the tensor C 1111 C 1122 C 1212 C 2211 and C 2222 are non-zero

Simulation examplesA set of examples is used to illustrate the effects on cloth draping simulationwith the incorporation of the mechanical properties of the fabrics
Example 1 A piece of cloth falling on a sphereThe mechanical properties of the fabric are listed in Table I The size of thecloth is 1 pound 1 m with meshing size of 50 pound 50 nodes and the radius of the sphereis 0125 m The animation process is shown in Figure 3
Example 2 Cloth draping over a sphere with various fabric materialsThe bending modulus of the cloth is changed to show the draping effectsThree cases are performed
Case 1 the bending modulus is enlarged by 5 timesCase 2 the original bending modulus is usedCase 3 the bending modulus is reduced to 15 of the original values
The draping behaviour is shown in Figure 4 The more rigid fabric in case 1gives a 4-wrinkle draping mode while the softer fabric generates an 8-wrinkledraping mode

This paper discusses the characteristics of the fabric material in terms of aset of measurable mechanical properties These properties are incorporated intoa continuum model for draping simulation and the results are then comparedwith the actual situations
Cloth draping simulationFigure 1 shows the pseudo-codes of a cloth draping simulator based onTeropoulos and Fleischer (1988) continuum model The state of a cloth elementis described by its position x and velocity Ccedilx Based on this state the clothdeformation is deregned For instance the metric and curvature tensors are thetypical deformation measurements The behaviours of the cloth arecharacterized by the strain energy due to the deformation Furthermoreinternal forces are induced because of this strain energy Applying thefundamental laws of dynamics such as Newtonrsquos second law of motion on theseelements the acceleration x is obtained which is used to calculate the new stateof the element for the next time step through numerical integration Once thenew state is computed collision detection is performed Basically there are twotypes of collision detection called cloth self-collision and cloth object collisionIf the collision is detected at the new state the new state will be given up

and collision responses are imposed as constraints at that instant Bothcollision detection and response are implemented as separate module in thesimulator for easy software management
Mechanical properties of fabric materialThe mechanical properties of a fabric material are measured by the KawabataEvaluation System under the assumption that fabric is anisotropic andorthotropic in warp and weft directions Three basic tests are performedtensile shear and bending test Figure 2 shows the plotting of the tensile andbending test of a fabric sample with 60 per cent wool and 40 per cent polyester
The mechanical behaviours of the cloth are governed by the strain energyaccumulated due to deformation Two main deformations occur in clothdraping metric deformation due to in-plane forces and curvature deformationdue to out-of-plane forces The strain energy density U is written as
U = 1=2

where lab is the strain tensor due to deformation and C abgd is the elasticmodulus tensors a b g and d are indices to denote the directions of theprinciple axes
Pis the aggregation of the strain energies due to metric and
curvature deformationThe elastic modulus tensors C abdg are symmetric tensors hence
C abdg = C abgd = C badg = C dgab (2)
When the warp and weft directions coincide with the principle coordinatesystem of the fabric C 1112 = C 1211 = C 1222 = C 2212 = 0 and only regvecomponents of the tensor C 1111 C 1122 C 1212 C 2211 and C 2222 are non-zero

Substituting equations (11)-(14) into equations (9) and (10) and combiningwith equations (3) and (4) yields the tensile modulus and the bending modulusin this direction

Since the ordfPoisson ratioordm of bending m 1 and m 2 are usually small they can beneglected Taking the angle y = 458 the tensile Poisson ratio and the twistingmodulus are written as

Hence the mechanical properties of modulus D1 D2 Ds H1 H2 and Hs can bemeasured directly by the Kawabata Evaluation System Other parameters suchas Poissonrsquos ratio and twisting modulus are obtained from the tensile shearand bending modulus by using equations (17) and (18)
Simulation examplesA set of examples is used to illustrate the effects on cloth draping simulationwith the incorporation of the mechanical properties of the fabrics
Example 1 A piece of cloth falling on a sphereThe mechanical properties of the fabric are listed in Table I The size of thecloth is 1 pound 1 m with meshing size of 50 pound 50 nodes and the radius of the sphereis 0125 m The animation process is shown in Figure 3
Example 2 Cloth draping over a sphere with various fabric materialsThe bending modulus of the cloth is changed to show the draping effectsThree cases are performed
Case 1 the bending modulus is enlarged by 5 timesCase 2 the original bending modulus is usedCase 3 the bending modulus is reduced to 15 of the original values
The draping behaviour is shown in Figure 4 The more rigid fabric in case 1gives a 4-wrinkle draping mode while the softer fabric generates an 8-wrinkledraping mode
Example 3 Cloth draping over a sphere with various fabric materialsTwo pieces of cloth with different fabric materials draping over a sphere isshown in Figure 5 The results are compared with the real images The size ofthe cloth is 06 pound 06 m and the radius of the sphere is 009 m The propertiesare listed in Table II
Example 4 Table cloth draping with various fabric materialsThe same simulation in example 3 is performed by using a cloth with varyingfabric materials The mechanical properties are listed in Table III
Each simulation is then compared with the appearance of real table clothsituations as shown in Figure 6
Example 5 Dresses with various fabric materialsThree typical fabric materials cotton polyester and silk are listed in Table IVThe results are simulated with a mannequin as shown in Figure 7

assume the fabric to be continuous elastic in both the modelling and theexperimental aspects Hence it is equivalent to modelling the draping of afabric sheet Fabric material exhibits the orthogonal anisotropy behaviourswhich leads to different mechanical properties in the weft and warp directionFigure 8 shows the tensile modulus of cloth The mechanical properties of thefabric are considered in three different directions the weft and warp directionsand an angle of 45 8 from one of the weft direction Once these properties aremeasured and calculated they can be inserted into the cloth model for drapingsimulation
