"3D GARSIM" - SOFTWARE APPLICATION FOR VIRTUAL GARMENT SIMULATION

This work presents a software application made for 3D garment realistic simulation. Our software application "3D GarSim" proposes a method for simulation the 2D pattern on the 3D virtual body. The application offers the possibility to set from the main menu - the pattern texture print and some mechanical parameters that could define the textile surface (bending, shearing, and stretching) behavior in the virtual environment. This simulator use like collision objects the parametric mannequins that can be imported from the program's library. The pattern design is made on specialized software. The 3D mannequin and the 2D pattern are loaded into a virtual room. The "3D GarSim" can use in the e-learning process, at faculty or master courses.
