The skim of balance theory of 3D garment simulation

The balance theory of 3D garment simulation tries to integrally study the complex system of human body-fabric-environment. The theory includes the geometrical balance, dynamic balance, pressure balance, and heat and moisture transfer balance. In this paper, the ICAD-balance equations are established based on the framework of balance theory and the heat and moisture transfer model of garment. A finite volume method is employed to solve the equations. Experiment results show that ICAD-balance equations can excellently simulate real situation. Therefore, our balance theory provides a good tool for customized clothing design, electronic mirror for clothing-test-platform, and comfortable clothing evaluation research.
