An analysis of one of the approaches to cloth modeling is carried out in this paper. The real 3D structure of the cloth at micro level is considered and the lighting simulation with the accuracy control is provided. The simulation result in BSDF form is a full description of optical properties of the cloth sample. It allows us to produce the “far view” of the cloth accurately and fast.

The detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and visualization of spermatozoa from forensic-type samples containing semen exposed to simulated gastric juice was investigated as a support for forensic practice. Samples of simulated gastric juice mixed with semen were prepared and incubated for up to 4 h at 37 degrees C. Samples were deposited on cotton cloth and on ceramic plates and allowed...

Progress in cloth simulation for computer animation and apparel design has led to a multitude of deformation models, each with its own way of relating geometry, deformation, and forces. As simulators improve, differences between these models become more important, but it is difficult to choose a model and a set of parameters to match a given real material simply by looking at simulation results...

The animation and rendering of crowds of realistically clothed characters presents a difficult challenge in computer graphics, which is further exacerbated when real-time frame rates are required. To date, due to real-time constraints, standard skinning methods have been used to animate the clothes of individuals in real-time crowds, which does not create the appropriate secondary motion for fl...

Any cloth simulation system needs efficient numerical methods for integrating the equations that describe the mechanical behavior of the discrete representation of the cloth. Choosing the adequate method should be done with full knowledge of the advantages and weaknesses of the main techniques. This paper presents a quantitative comparison of the efficiency of the most common integration techni...

A reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction assay was used to study the transfer of Norovirus (NV) from contaminated faecal material via fingers and cloths to other hand-contact surfaces. The results showed that, where fingers come into contact with virus-contaminated material, NV is consistently transferred via the fingers to melamine surfaces and from there to other typical hand-contact...
