摘要

Digital clothing design with superior thermal performance has attracted many interests of designers and manufacturers due to that the better functional performance of clothing is being desired by the common consumers now. This paper presents an innovative engineering design framework for digital design and development of clothing products with superior thermal performance. The two central parts of this framework are computational simulation and computer-aided system. Computational simulation is enabled by simulation models, characteristic data, and numerical algorithms. The computer-aided system aims to provide a user-friendly engineering design tool for users through a series of functionalities including design and engineering interfaces, support of engineering database, simulation and prediction, visualization and evaluation.
