bodies on page 4067: the higher the mass of the cloth, the less stretching induced
by the rigid body.
Friction The coefficient of friction for the cloth's surface. As with rigid bodies,
this affects how smoothly the cloth moves relative to surfaces it contacts. The
Friction values for both objects in contact combine to produce a coefficient
for the interaction.
Rel Density Cloth has no volume, so reactor cannot calculate its density.
Instead, reactor provides a buoyancy property for Cloth objects, which reflects
its relative density. The default value is 1.0, the density of water. This value
is important only if you are going to float or immerse the cloth in water.
Air Resistance The extent to which the cloth loses energy as it moves.
Force Model Choose the way forces in the simulation affect your cloth object:
■ Simple Force Model This default method is suitable for most situations.
■ Stiffness The stiffness of the cloth.
■ Damping How quickly the cloth dissipates energy as it changes shape.
■ Complex Force Model This more-accurate model of cloth dynamics is
more computationally expensive to simulate. It provides parameters to
specify the shear and stretch stiffness separately, as well as a physically
accurate out-of-plane bend property.
■ Stretch The cloth resistance to stretching.
■ Bend The cloth resistance to bending.
■ Shear The cloth resistance to shearing.
■ Damping How quickly the cloth dissipates energy as it changes shape.
Fold Stiffness Fold stiffness governs the cloth resistance to folding.
■ None By default, Cloth objects have no fold stiffness, and behave like a
loose material such as silk.
■ Uniform Model This model adds fold stiffness uniformly across the surface
of the cloth, regardless of its topology.
■ Stiffness The fold stiffness value.
