Course Objective

The objective of this course is to study the feasibilities of creating realistic images of textile fabric structures on a computer screen. These images will be a useful tool for Textile designers for visualizing their designs without them being actually produced on machines. Such an approach would be very cost effective as one could market the ideas using paper samples.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Understanding dimensional means of textile structures in the studies
2   Understanding and identifying the fabric structures in three dimensions
3   Determining the mathematical modelling of the structures
4   Usage of appropriate program language and computer graphical design software
5   Analyzing and comparing the structural properties of the fabric based on the generated 3D model and the actual manufactured fabric
