Abstract:
There is provided a method for designing a garment having a particular certification based on the visibility characteristics of the garment. The method takes into account various factors including manufacturing tolerances, occlusion by logos, etc. to calculate a certification level for the garment visibility. This certification level is calculated dynamically as the design features are amended.
Abstract:
A method of designing a virtual model for the manufacture of a blended body structure having two or more constituent elements, the method comprising the step of defining a parameterised, theoretical procedural skin from which two or more datum skins are generated, each datum skin defining a production outline of an airframe structure constituent element. The use of a procedural model with embedded parameterisation and associativity to derive the datum skins reduces the time taken to produce the datum skins and enables feature modifications to be incorporated into models quickly and consistently.
Abstract:
A garment-model computer simulation is provided that has a model portion and a garment portion. The model portion has a first layer and a second layer. The garment portion has a third layer. The first and third layers are organized with the second layer. The garment portion has an adjustable periphery that, when adjusted, distorts a node spacing within each of the first, second, and third layers.
Abstract:
A method of quantitatively analyzing results of a model. At least one image of a model is generated in a post-processor. A calibration mechanism of known dimensions is generated in the post-processor. The calibration mechanism is read into an analysis software. The image is read into the analysis software. The image from the post-processor is analyzed in the analysis software quantitatively using the calibration mechanism.
Abstract:
A virtual model capable of simulating physical deformation of at least a portion of a body. The model comprises at least two computer-generated volumes that together define an external surface and an interfacial surface, one of the computer-generated volumes being a deformable volume and one of the computer-generated volumes being a prescribed motion volume. At least a portion of the interfacial surface has a prescribed motion associated therewith.
