Appearance Characteristics of a Velvet Fabric and 3-Dimensional Modeling of Pile Fibers
Kimjongjun, Jeondongwon, 이정민 · Fashion business · 2005
Velvet fabric has soft touch, subtle luster, and good draping property. Three- dimensional simulated models of cylindrical monofilaments constitutin gt he velvet fabric were prepared. Image analysis techniques were used to measure the reflected light from the surface of velvet fabrics and the simulated images of the pil ef ibers. As the angle of incidence increased, the reflectance from the velvet surface became lower. Most of the reflection came from the tips of the cut piles. Crushed velvet type also was modeled using slant cylinder models on top of a base plate.
