CLO3D를 활용한 전기활성 PVC gel의 자동 형태 변형 엠보싱 효과 연구
This study examined how the embossing effect of electroactive polyvinylchloride (PVC) gel, an electrically responsive material that changes shape under electrical stimulation, can be simulated in CLO3D and applied to shape-changing garment design. Three simulation approaches were developed based on the deformation characteristics of the electroactive PVC gel: pressure, warp and weft shrinkage, and elastic band strength adjustments. The visual similarity of each simulation approach and the actual deformation behavior of the gel were comparedusing experte valuations. The results demonstrated that the warp and weft shrinkage adjustment method most closely reproduced the embossing effect of the gel. Simulation settings with a shrinkage rate of 130% or lower and a pattern size of 3 inches or smaller yielded the most stable and aesthetically effective outcomes. Using these optimal conditions, three skirt designs (basicfitted, flare, and asymmetric) were proposed to verify the practical applicability of this embossing effect in garment design. By presenting a digital simulation-based method for reviewing designs that incorporate electroactive materials, these findings suggest practical design strategies for smart textiles and interactive fashion. This study also indicates the need for future research to extend this approach to a broader range of garment items and integrate user experience-based evaluations.
