Research on Digital Restoration of Plain Unlined Silk Gauze Gown of Mawangdui Han Dynasty Tomb Based on AHP and Human–Computer Interaction Technology

Abstract

In 1972, the Plain Unlined Silk Gauze Gown unearthed from the Mawangdui Han Dynasty tomb in Changsha, Hunan Province, China, received attention from various fields such as archeology, cultural relics conservation, textile and costume because of its light texture and exquisite craftsmanship. However, due to it being unearthed decades ago and imperfect preservation measures being used, it has been increasingly damaged by the influence of the external environment. Therefore, there is an urgent need to carry out archeology, restoration and protection of the Plain Unlined Silk Gauze Gown. In this paper, the Plain Unlined Silk Gauze Gown is taken as the research object, and the costume pattern is obtained through 3D interactive pattern-making technology. Then virtual simulation technology is used to digitally restore the Plain Unlined Silk Gauze Gown in combination with the fabric, color and pattern of the costume. Finally, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method are introduced to evaluate the virtual simulation effect of the costume. The results show that the virtual simulation effect of the Plain Unlined Silk Gauze Gown is very good. From the results of the costume restoration, the AHP captures the uncertainty in the process of costume virtual simulation evaluation, quantifies the judgments with weights, reduces the subjectivity of the evaluation process, and provides a scientific and effective method for evaluating the virtual simulation effect of ancient costumes.

Develop an environment‐friendly detergent for textile relics adsorbing soil/rust stains

“…Moreover, the washing work of textile relics is also extremely important to the reinforcement, restoration and other follow‐up protection work of textile relics (Perrier & Calle Morales, 2018; Seon et al, 2017). However, the present work mainly focused on the texture, pattern modeling, weaving technology, identification and restoration, reinforcement material's development, storage environment analysis and aging simulation test of textile relics, and so forth, there were few researches on the washing work of textile relics (Liu, Zhao, & Zhu, 2022; Sowada et al, 2021; Zhang et al, 2017). At present, there were a few scholars carrying out experimental research on the washing and storage of textile relics, and briefly expounded the main factors affecting washing effect of the washing and storage (Ahmed & Ziddan, 2011; Cakmakci et al, 2022; Dilillo et al, 2015).…”

Study on digital protection and innovative design of Qin opera costumes

“…Cultural heritage can be protected through digital technology, virtual visualization technology and so on. As a product of the development and dissemination of the Internet, digital technology is widely used in architecture [6], culture [7], tourism [8], clothing [9], archaeology [10,11] and so on. Digital technology can improve work quality and efficiency and reduce the damage probability of Cultural Heritage [12].…”

“…There is no high-quality literature on the research of integrating artificial intelligence, virtual reality and other technologies into the digital protection and innovative design of Qin costume. There have been relevant studies on the restoration and protection of costume by using pattern-based 3D modeling and human-computer interaction technologies [9][10][11], and some progress has been made. 3D innovative design based on costume elements is a new research field.…”

“…At present, the latest method of costume digital restoration is to apply the virtual stitching technology of custom pattern to quickly construct a realistic 3D costume model by simulating the mechanical properties of fabric in the physical simulation environment such as virtual gravity and virtual wind. The pattern development is a necessary part of costume digital restoration [10,11]. The three-dimensional interactive pattern-making method provides technical support for pattern-making of ancient costumes [24].…”

Research on Archaeology and Digital Restoration of Costumes in DaoLian Painting

“…The digitization of ancient costume usually relies on three-dimensional (3D) modeling technology to accurately restore costume color, structure, fabric, and size. At present, 3D virtual fitting technology has gradually matured and is widely used in the fields of pattern development [14], clothing comfort evaluation [15], interactive design [16][17][18], and costume archaeology and restoration [19][20][21][22]. In recent years, some achievements have been made in the restoration of historical costumes.…”
