Published on 3rd April 2022 this book provides state-of-the-art information on weaving technology and 3D fabrics. It examines weaving preparation, mechanics and limits of the weaving processes, pattern design and applications.
The TexGen chapter gives a practical overview and introduction to the use of TexGen and the modelling theory used in the software. There is a guide to creating automatically generated textile models using the built-in weave wizards and a detailed example of the method for creating a textile model using the functionality within the graphical user interface (GUI). An overview of the Python application programming interface (API) is given, illustrated by an example script, as well as information on how to use the Python functions to edit existing textiles. Finally there is an overview of the options for different meshing and export options used to prepare models as input for simulations.
