Abstract

In this work we present fiber lay-down models that enable an efficient simulation of nonwoven structures. The models describe the form of deposited fibers with help of stochastic differential equations. The model parameters have to be estimated from more complex models in combination with measurements of the resulting nonwoven. We discuss the adaptation of a three-dimensional model on the basis of a typical industrial problem.
