Geometric Modeling of a Cyber Replica System for Fabric Surface Property Grading

A new cyber replica system is developed that can complement and substitute the standard physical replica used to manually evaluate the surface ruggedness of fabric defined by AATCC. In our previous work, objective evaluation methods for fabric surface properties such as wrinkling, smoothness, or seam puckering were developed using three-dimensional measurements of the fabric surface to reconstruct its surface contour. The fractal dimension was calculated from the measured geometry as a parameter representing the ruggedness of fabric in comparison with the AATCC replica. However, we ..
