A single phase level set method for capturing the propagating front within textile unit-cells is presented. The computational domain is embedded within an artificial Cartesian grid in order to avoid the difficulties associated with the meshing step. The flow is modelled by using the Stokes/Brinkman equations. Hence, the necessity of describing the yarn boundaries is avoided. The propagating front...
