Numerical modeling of bra wear during running

Résumé

Numerical modelling of bras and their influence on breasts during sport could be a valuable tool for bra designers as it could avoid the development of prototypes and help improving the performances of bras. Such a model requires a model for the breasts and for the bra. Models of breasts are available in the literature but they are based on MRI data that are expensive and heavy to segment and mesh. One of the main issues to develop a breast numerical model is to define a reference state for the breast without gravity, to avoid errors in the evaluation of stresses during sport. Rajagopal et al. used water to cancel the effect of gravity on a part of the breast and define the reference state; this idea is followed in the present work. The present work is focused on modelling female breasts, simulating brawear and investigating the influence of the bra on stresses and strains in the breast. A particular objective of this work is to provide a model that can run fast enough on a regular computer, so that it is convenient to use for industrial and commercial purposes.
