Lay-Down Cellulose Fibers

Using Lay-Down Cellulose Fibers you can form a new paper structure by a lay-down process. With the selection of Lay-Down Cellulose Fibers from the PaperGeo section pull-down menu, fibers fall from their initial positions during the paper generation and form a paper structure.

Clicking the Lay-Down Options’ Edit… button opens the Lay-Down Cellulose Fibers Options dialog box.

At the top left of the dialog box, the name for the files containing the generation results can be entered in the Result File Name (*.gdr) box. The default name can be kept, or a new name can be chosen fitting the current project.

The available units (m, mm, µm, nm and Voxel) are selectable at the top right of the dialog box. When the units are changed, the entered values are adjusted automatically.

The options are organized into four tabs:
  • Lay Down Options
    Determine general properties of the resulting paper model such as size, resolution, and the stopping criterion for the generation.
  • Fiber Options
    Define the geometrical properties of the individual fiber types such as cross-section, length, and orientation. Up to seven different fiber types can be used in one paper structure.
  • Fiber Motion
    Control the way the fibers are laid down (initial fiber positions and their movements to the final position).
  • Result Options
    Determine how the result files are saved.

The result files are saved in the chosen project folder (File → Choose Project Folder, in the Menu bar).
