Nathan Mitchell, Michael Doescher, Eftychios Sifakis We introduce a new numerical approach for the solution of grid-based discretizations of nonlinear elastic models. Our method targets the linearized system of equations within each iteration of the Newton method, and combines elements … Continue reading →

Rene Winchenbach, Hendrik Hochstetter, Andreas Kolb In this paper we present a new approach to create neighbor lists with strict memory bounds for incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations. Our proposed approach is based on a novel efficient predictive-corrective algorithm … Continue reading →

Florian Canezin, Gael Guennebaud, Loïc Barthe Particle based simulations are widely used in computer graphics. In this field, several recent results have improved the simulation itself or improved the tension of the final fluid surface. In current particle based implementations, the particle … Continue reading →

Aaron Demby Jones, Pradeep Sen, Theodore Kim Subspace fluid simulations, also known as reduced-order simulations, can be extremely fast, but also require basis matrices that consume an enormous amount of memory. Motivated by the extreme sparsity of Laplacian eigenfunctions in … Continue reading →

Danyong Zhao, Yijing Li, Jernej Barbic In standard deformable object simulation in computer animation, all the mesh elements or vertices are timestepped synchronously, i.e., under the same timestep. Previous asynchronous methods have been largely limited to explicit integration. We demonstrate … Continue reading →

Nuttapong Chentanez, Matthias Müller, Miles Macklin Shape matching is a popular method for simulating deformable objects in real time as it is fast and stable at large time steps. Although shape matching can simulate large elastic deformation and ductile fracturing, until … Continue reading →

Sheng Yang Xiaowei He Huamin Wang Sheng Li Guoping Wang Enhua Wu Kun Zhou Capillary waves are difficult to simulate due to their fast traveling speed and high frequency. In this paper, we propose to approximate capillary wave effects by … Continue reading →

Tassilo Kugelstadt, Elmar Schoemer We present a novel method to simulate bending and torsion of elastic rods within the position-based dynamics (PBD) framework. The main challenge is that torsion effects of Cosserat rods are described in terms of material frames … Continue reading →

Tao Yang, Ming C. Lin, Ralph R. Martin, Jian Chang, and Shi-Min Hu The realistic capture of various interactions at interfaces is a challenging problem for SPH-based simulation. Previous works have mainly considered a single type of interaction, while real-world … Continue reading →
