The typical elastic surface or curve simulation method takes a Lagrangian approach and
consists of three components: time integration, collision detection and collision response …

We present a technique for simulating plastic deformation in sheets of thin materials, such as
crumpled paper, dented metal, and wrinkled cloth. Our simulation uses a framework of …

We present an incremental collision handling algorithm for GPU-based interactive cloth
simulation. Our approach exploits the spatial and temporal coherence between successive …

Efficient simulation of contact is of interest for numerous physics-based animation
applications. For instance, virtual reality training, video games, rapid digital prototy**, and …

The computation of discrete maps is a fundamental problem in computer graphics that has
been extensively studied in the last three decades. The problem is challenging due to the …

Deformable simulation has been extensively studied in the graphics community. While the
underlying computation methods are well established, the computational cost for simulating …

The mechanical behavior of multibody systems can be modeled with several numerical
methods. One can mention the Multibody Dynamics (MBD), the Finite Element Method …

We present a version of the Discrete Element Method considering the particles as rigid
polyhedra. The Principle of Virtual Work is employed as basis for a multibody dynamics …

Many tasks in geometry processing and physical simulation benefit from multiresolution
hierarchies. One important characteristic across a variety of applications is that coarser …

Numerical errors and rounding errors in continuous collision detection (CCD) can easily
cause collision detection failures if they are not handled properly. A simple and effective …
