What is it about?
We present FibreSimulator, an open-source Python tool for creating 3D models of fibre-reinforced polymers. It allows control over materials, fibre orientation, and shape, and simulates tomographic scans to study how scan settings affect reconstruction and segmentation.

Why is it important?
Real tomography data are expensive and lack ground truth. FibreSimulator provides realistic, controllable data, enabling better training, testing, and optimization of reconstruction methods and scan settings.
Perspectives
This project is a first step toward realistic simulation in tomography. It reflects my goal to bridge synthetic and real data, highlighting the value of ground truth, control, and reproducibility for improving machine learning and imaging methods.
