US Patent:
7634394, Dec 15, 2009
Filed:
Mar 4, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/072152
Inventors:
Matthew Joseph Macura - Mariemont OH, US
Bryan Keith Feller - Wyoming OH, US
Luke Hwang - West Chester OH, US

Assignee:
The Procter & Gamble Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:
G06F 17/10
G06G 7/48
US Classification:
703 6, 703 2
Abstract:
A method for analyzing the comfort of an actual product on an actual body by use of a virtual product model and virtual body model to calculate a comfort indicator. The method comprises the steps of: (a) providing a virtual body model; (b) providing a virtual product model; (c) providing virtual simulation software; (d) gathering data from actual users of an actual product of a type modeled by the virtual product model; (e) running a virtual simulation for the virtual product model worn on the virtual body model; (f) running a virtual simulation for the virtual body model in the absence of the virtual product model; (g) calculating a difference in deformation on the virtual body model between the virtual simulations; and (h) correlating the calculated difference to the gathered data to determine a magnitude difference, the magnitude difference being the comfort indicator.

Jun 20, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/600774
Inventors:
Bryan Keith Feller - Cincinnati OH, US
Matthew Joseph Macura - Cincinnati OH, US
Assignee:
The Procter & Gamble Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:
A61F 13/15
A61F 13/20
US Classification:
60438516, 60438503, 60438522
Abstract:
An absorbent article capable of reliably achieving an improved body-fitting profile. The absorbent article includes a fluid permeable facing layer having a first elastic modulus and an absorbent core joined to the facing layer, the absorbent core having a second elastic modulus, wherein at equal strain from about 1% to about 5% the first elastic modulus is greater than the second elastic modulus, and a fluid impermeable backsheet joined to the facing layer.

US Patent:
7937253, May 3, 2011
Filed:
Mar 4, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/071918
Inventors:
John Matthew Anast - Fairfield OH, US
Douglass Scott Henry - West Chester OH, US
Bruce William Lavash - West Chester OH, US
Matthew Joseph Macura - Mariemont OH, US
Michael Lewis Rubin - Mason OH, US
Assignee:
The Procter & Gamble Company - Cincinnati OH
International Classification:
G06F 7/48
G06F 17/10
US Classification:
703 6, 703 2, 700 98, 345474, 345475
Abstract:
A computer method for simulating motion of at least a portion of a virtual body is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: providing a surfaced body model; capturing or computing motion data for an external surface of the surfaced body; dividing the body model into at least two volumes, one of the volumes comprising at least a portion of the external surface of the surfaced body and being a deformable volume, and one of the volumes being a prescribed motion volume, the two volumes defining an interfacial surface; moving the external surface of the surfaced body according to the motion data while computing motion of the interfacial surface; and, simulating motion of the portion of a body by driving motion of the interfacial surface through the computed motion to provide an accurately positioned moving deformable surface that can be used in garment design.

US Patent:
7979256, Jul 12, 2011
Filed:
Jan 30, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/699880
Inventors:
Matthew Joseph Macura - Cincinnati OH, US
Paul Martin Lipic - West Chester OH, US
Douglas Gregory Stevens - Cincinnati OH, US
Bruce William Lavash - West Chester OH, US
Assignee:
The Procter & Gamble Company - Cincinnati OH

A61M 1/00
US Classification:
703 9, 703 2, 703 6, 604317
Abstract:
A method for determining absorbent article effectiveness of a virtual absorbent article. The steps of the method include providing a virtual body model, providing a virtual absorbent article model, providing virtual simulation software, running a virtual simulation of deformation of the virtual absorbent article model in proximity with the virtual body model, running a virtual simulation of the fluid balance of the virtual absorbent article model in proximity with the virtual body model, coupling the virtual simulation of deformation of the virtual absorbent article model and the virtual simulation of the fluid balance of the virtual absorbent article model, and determining absorbent article effectiveness of the virtual absorbent article model in proximity with the virtual body model.

International Classification:
G06F019/00
US Classification:
700098000
Abstract:
A method of quantitatively analyzing results of a model. At least one image of a model is generated in a post-processor. A calibration mechanism of known dimensions is generated in the post-processor. The calibration mechanism is read into an analysis software. The image is read into the analysis software. The image from the post-processor is analyzed in the analysis software quantitatively using the calibration mechanism.
