This paper describes a physically-based model for animating cloth objects, derived from elastically deformable models, and improved in order to take into account the non-elastic properties of woven fabrics. A cloth object is first approximated to a deformable surface composed of a network of masses and springs, the movement of which is evaluated using the numerical integration of the fundamental law of dynamics. We show that when a concentration of high stresses occurs in a small region of the surface, the local deformation becomes unrealistic compared to real deformations of textiles. With such an elastic model, the only solution to decrease these deformations has been so far to increase the stiffness of the deformed, |
