    Spring-particle model for hyperelastic cloth
    (UNIV NAC COLOMBIA, FAC NAC MINAS, 2007-03-01) Garcia, Manuel; Gomez, Mario; Ruiz, Oscar; Boulanger, Pierre; Mecánica Aplicada
    This article presents a computational model to simulate the deformation of hyperelastic fabrics. The model is based on a spring-particle approach and it simulates the interaction of a textile tissue with a forming body. The fabric is represented by rectangular meshes of springs. This fact enables the model to behave orthotropically and therefore it is possible to simulate the warp and weft properties. The constitutive relations preserve the natural hyperelastic capabilities of the cloth. In the model developed herein, initially the cloth lies in its relaxed un-deformed state. Then it is given an initial deformation that guarantees no contact nor intersection with the forming rigid body. Finally, the deformed cloth is realised, and moves iteratively towards an equilibrium location. The final equilibrium location is reached when the internal forces are balanced by the external contact forces caused by the rigid object. This is achieved when the stop criterion has been satisfied.
