Summary:A computer-implemented method for simulating a plurality of fibers is disclosed. It may be applied in particular for simulating the mechanical behavior of a tress or head of hair, woven or nonwoven fabrics, brushes, or other products incorporating fibrous material. The method comprises: providing a computational model for describing mechanical behavior of fibers; obtaining a set of fiber mechanical parameters, associated with fibers of a predetermined type, for use with the computational model; obtaining geometry information, describing the shape and position of the plurality of fibers to be simulated; and simulating, using the computational model, the set of fiber mechanical parameters, and the geometry information, a change in configuration of the plurality of fibers, to produce a second geometry information.
