Abstract: | This paper addresses the problem of computing planar patterns for compression garments. In the garment industry, the compression garment has been increasingly widely used to retain the shape of a human body, where certain strain (or normal pressure) is designed at some places on the compression garment. Variant values and distribution of strain can only be generated by sewing different two-dimensional (2D) patterns and warping them onto the body. We present a physical/geometric approach for computing 2D meshes that, when folded onto the three-dimensional (3D) body, can generate a user-defined strain distribution through proper distortion. This is opposite to the widely studied mesh parameterization problem, whose objective is to minimize the distortion between the 2D and 3D meshes in angle, area or length. |
