CLOTH - MODELING, DEFORMATION, AND SIMULATION
<p>This project presents the concepts of modeling cloth objects with different materials by using parameters such as mass, stiffness, and damping. This project also introduces deformation and simulation methods to present the movement and interaction of cloth objects. The implementation is …

Eulerian on Lagrangian Cloth Simulation
… (EoL) approach for simulating cloth. This approach allows for the simulation of traditionally difficult cloth scenarios, such as draping and sliding cloth over sharp features like the edge of a table. A traditional Lagrangian approach models a cloth as a series of connected …

The nitration of cotton cloth
… in an attempt to obtain a cellulose nitrate, cloth, (by the direct nitration of cotton cloth) which would be suitable for use in powder bags. Such a product must have a rapid rate of combustion, a very small amount of ash, and a tensile strength which would meet Government requirements for …

Cloth Filter for Disaster Relief Water Treatment
… using layers of nonwoven polypropylene filter cloth. Two types of cloth were used: a nominally-rated 1-µm pore size cloth and an absolute-rated 1-µm cloth. The filters tested were both internal and external to the waterbag and of various geometries. Filters were attached to the waterbag and …

Automatic tailoring and cloth modelling for animation characters.
… reflects the personality of character. Virtual clothing refers to the process that constructs outfits for virtual characters, and currently, it is widely used in mainly two areas, fashion industry and computer animation. In fashion industry, virtual clothing technology is an effective tool which …

Contamination of Stuffed Cloth Toys on a Pediatric Unit
<p>The purpose of the study was to determine if cloth stuffed toys used by children in the pediatric unit of Loma Linda University Hospital carry microbacterial pathogens that are the same type as those pathogens found in the throat of the child using the toy. A second purpose was to determine how …

The modification of activated carbon cloth by alumina deposition
The impregnation of mesoporous carbon cloth with alumina has been studied. The most successful method of impregnation resulted from preparation of the alumina phase by a sol/gel route. This method involves a boehmite intermediate, and the heating environment for the thermal transition of boehmite …

Adsorption of Pollutants on Charcoal Cloth in Simulated Guard Filters
… from air by adsorption on activated charcoal cloth and the subsequent regeneration of the cloth in a stream of hot air was investigated. The above four solvents were chosen as typical organics, due to their less hazardous properties. They are all in reasonably common use and relevant detailed …
