Cloth Modeling and Simulation: A Literature Survey

Cloth modeling and simulation has gained significant momentum in recent years due to advances in computational hardware and software. Cloth plays an important role not only in daily life, but also in special scenarios such as firefighter's cloth and space suits. There are special requirements such as protection capability of the human body and mobility after the firefighters or astronauts wear the special cloth. Traditional assessment of cloth is to have prototypes first and have experiments by subjective rating. This is time consuming and expensive. Virtual cloth modeling and simulation provides a means to demonstrate and assess its performance before cloth is made. This paper attempts to give a literature review to summarize the state-of-the-art of cloth modeling and simulation.
