Abstract
The method including defining a volume element and packing the volume element with digital elements modelling fiber elements of the composite material, and extending longitudinally along a main axis, the packing including associating each digital element with a position in a plane in three-dimensional space and with an orientation of its main axis; and successively positioning each digital element in the volume element in compliance with the position and the orientation that are associated therewith, this positioning including putting the digital element into contact with a wall of the volume element and/or a previously-positioned digital element, and geometrically adapting the digital element to the wall and/or to the previously-positioned element with which it is in contact; a portion of a digital element being subjected to a deformation other than having its longitudinal axis inclined relative to the main axis of the digital element.
