Abstract
A computer implemented method for simulating the behavior of a woven fabric at yarn level including: retrieving the layout of warp yarns, weft yarns and yarn crossing nodes; describing each yarn crossing node by a 3D position coordinate (x) and two sliding coordinates, warp sliding coordinate (u) and weft sliding coordinate (v) representing the sliding of warp and weft yarns; measuring forces on each yarn crossing node based on a force model, the forces being measured on both the 3D position coordinate (x) and the sliding coordinates (u, v); and calculating the movement of each yarn crossing node using equations of motion derived using the Lagrange-Euler equations, and numerically integrated over time, wherein the equations of motion account for the mass density distributed uniformly along yarns, as well as the measured forces and boundary conditions.
