kDet: Parallel Constant Time Collision Detection for Polygonal Objects

Posted on June 12, 2017 by christopherbatty

René Weller, Nicole Debowski and Gabriel Zachmann We define a novel geometric predicate and a class of objects that enables us to prove a linear bound on the number of intersecting polygon pairs for colliding 3D objects in that class. … Continue reading →

Geometric Stiffness for Real-time Constrained Multibody Dynamics

Posted on June 12, 2017 by christopherbatty

Sheldon Andrews, Marek Teichmann, Paul Kry This paper focuses on the stable and efficient simulation of articulated rigid body systems for real-time applications. Specifically, we focus on the use of geometric stiffness, which can dramatically increase simulation stability. We examine … Continue reading →

Fluxed Animated Boundary Method

Posted on June 8, 2017 by christopherbatty

Alexey Stomakhin, Andrew Selle We present a novel approach to guiding physically based particle simulations using boundary conditions. Unlike commonly used ad hoc particle techniques for adding and removing the material from a simulation, our approach is principled by utilizing … Continue reading →

Quasi-Newton Methods for Real-time Simulation of Hyperelastic Materials

Posted on June 5, 2017 by christopherbatty

Tiantian Liu, Sofien Bouaziz, Ladislav Kavan We present a new method for real-time physics-based simulation supporting many different types of hyperelastic materials. Previous methods such as Position Based or Projective Dynamics are fast, but support only limited selection of materials; … Continue reading →
