Procedure for weave structure modeling using NURBS. (a) Cylinder models for core and cladding representation [1]; (b) target fabric weave structure; (c) weave peg string input (dashed: weft, solid: warp direction); (d) initial NURBS control points (for warp); (e) adjustment of control points using peg string; (f) final crimp structure.
