Textile SimulationTextile is proposing the textile pattern and color by utilizing the computer simulation system to get the quick decision-making of our customers without making a prototypes of textile fabric.

The computer simulation system we own can create the complete textile image by input the data of weft-warp yarns and weaving patterns.

“ModSimTex” ProjectThe ModSimTex project is an European Commission Community Research 7th Framework Programmed, Priority 4 NMP Project.

The objective of the Project is to develop a system which will reduce dramatically the cost to develop new technical textile products by reducing the time, energy and raw material waste during the production machinery setup process.

Its total budget is 4.5M€ and it will take 3 years and a half to complete.

The Project Consortium is composed by 3 Universities, 2 research centers and 7 companies from 6 different Member States.

Description of the Project

“ModSimTex” ProjectThe textile industry faces important challenges regarding the production of new advanced textile products. It is not possible to define the characteristics and parameters of a given textile structure due to the difficulty of measuring them. his situation makes very difficult to configure the machines involved in the production of such textiles; the typical practices consists in manufacturing samples and through trial and error adjust the processing operations until the desired characteristics are achieved in the final product.

With this procedure it’s very expensive to match the designer’s idea with the final product. The production setup takes a long amount of time and efforts and increases the cost of the final product. This is especially critical when a company is trying to develop new technical textiles.

“ModSimTex” ProjectThe vast majority of the existing systems capable to simulate textile products are limited to the visual representation, without any kind of mechanical or physical evaluation of the properties of the textile structures.

This virtual construction system will allow the prediction of the multifunctional textile performance before the actual textile is manufactured allowing the settings of the production machines to be either an input or an output of the computation thus reducing dramatically the effort and cost to produce small batches or develop a new advanced technological textile.

CAD-CAM for Textile ProductsA wide variety of design in fabrics is based on the combination of yarns with different colours or printing designs. To be successful in this task nowadays is directly related with computer design. This subject deals with different programs depending on the process required to design, it will be studied both, the one for weaving technology (to combine yarns and structures) and the one for digital printing.

Finally, designs created by the student/developer will be used in a program to simulate different environments in 3D such as a living room (armchair, curtains, carpet, etc.).

Design Jacquard History has seen mankind expressing his art on fabrics using complex weave structures to enliven forms, motifs and nature to create tapestry, carpets, furnishings. Millions of interlacements are painstakingly defined to create a weave plan which earlier took months at a stretch.

Design Jacquard is a tribute to our predecessors wherein an array of tools is provided for creating artwork interactively, facilities to create and attribute weaves to the artwork. It goes further in simulating the fabric and transfers the design to Electronic Jacquard for flawless weaving. Here goes a brief on working.

Different Design Jacquard

Weave Creation Simple and Intuitive User interface enables enhanced functionality to Design Jacquard... weaves can be created from scratch, satin, twills built on the fly...weaves can be combined, rearranged adding thrust to creativity.

Single and multi - layered weave structures can be achieved easily.

Auto satin and twill generator to create satin weaves with varying repeat and steps.

Simulation of Fabrics Presenting your concepts in a realistic way.

You can vary the different parameters of a design or edit the design and observe the result instantaneously.

Simulation is further enhanced by using yarns created or scanned directly into the library. The yarn editor allows you to work on parameters such as twist, colors, thickness, etc to generate chenile, fancy, slubs, melanges, twisted, and all types of yarn effects.

Computer-simulated knitting goes right down to the yarn

To put clothes on their characters, computer graphic artists usually simulate cloth by creating a thin sheet, then adding some sort of texture. But that doesn’t work for knit sweaters. To make the image realistic, the computer has to simulate the surface right down to the intricate intertwining of yarn.

So scientists must, in effect, teach computers to knit – and graphic artists have to painstakingly model the 3-D structure of every stitch.

A new method for building simulated knitted fabric out of an array of individual stitches was reported at the 39th International Conference and Exhibition of Computer Graphics

YARN Scheduler Load Simulator (SLS)

LS is a tool that simulates load corresponds to a large scale YARN cluster in a single machine. It helps researchers and developers to prototype new scheduler features and predicts the performance and behavior over the large cluster. The size of the cluster and application load could be configured from configuration files. The simulator will produce real-time metrics for:

Resource usage for the whole cluster and each queue

Detailed application execution trace for analyzing scheduler behavior in terms of throughput, fairness, a job's turnaround time

Key metrics of the scheduler algorithm, such as time of each scheduler operation

Fibersim benefits Eliminate errors and enable increased part optimization

With Fibersim 14, you can easily perform optimization loops between CAE pre- and post processing and Fibersim with zone-based CAE exchange. The ability to exchange composite definitions between an analyst and designer ensures efficiency and eliminates errors to provide a way to achieve composite part optimization. Optimization of composite parts leads to reduced product weight, material costs and production costs.

Fibersim benefits Achieve design optimization and make design changes quickly

Fibersim 14 allows you to achieve designs and make changes faster with multi-ply – a unique, automated specification-driven design methodology. You can define specifications for material, material groups, drop-off profiles and drop-off spacing which are associated to different base shapes. The specifications manage the creation of the ply boundary geometry and definition. As a result, you can quickly make changes during the iterative design process, increasing productivity by up to 80 percent.

Fibersim benefits Verify fiber orientation definitions and increase confidence in material properties

With Fibersim 14, you can accurately define desired fiber orientations to meet analysis structural requirements with fiber field and compare rosettes. With the fiber field rosette highlighting capability, you can visualize the mapping of the desired fiber orientation across the entire part based on the type of rosette used. To further ensure the similarity between the analyst’s desired fiber orientations and the Fibersim model, the rosette-compare utility allows you to compare different rosette mapping types.

 CSS Carpet Software Solutions - Weave Editor

The CSS Weave Editor is the program for carpet weaving specialists. This program offers a standard package of weave structures. If you want more, you can ask CSS to create custom-made structures for you or you can make them yourself with the CSS Weave Editor. If the loom can do it, it can be programmed. The CSS Weave Editor includes the CSS Binding Analyzer. This program helps to display and analyze the weave structures on screen.

Some Advantages of Weave Editor

The program works under Windows 2000/XP™ and consistently uses all the advantages of this operating system

The weave structures are generated from only a few basic parameters. This saves time, and helps to avoid errors. The parameters are saved as a standard text file

Corrections for mixed contours are also generated from a few basic corrections. Here, even more time is saved. For example 12 basic corrections in the parameter file can result in 1296 corrections in the final weave structure file
