Abstract

The invention relates to a method of generating a synthesized image of a hair, comprising the following steps: The behavioral relationship may be given by the minimization of the following function:where α=Lk0 and β=K/gμL3, and where L designates the length of the hair, k0 its spontaneous curvature, K its bending moment, μ its linear density and g the acceleration due to gravity, {tilde over (s)} the curvilinear abscissa relative to the length of the hair, {tilde over (k)} its local curvature relative to its length and {tilde over (z)} its height relative to its length.
