TightCCD: Efficient and Robust Continuous Collision Detection using Tight Error Bounds

Zhendong Wang, Min Tang , Ruofeng Tong, and Dinesh Manocha We present a realtime and reliable continuous collision detection (CCD) algorithm between triangulated models that exploits the floating point hardware capability of current CPUs and GPUs. Our formulation is based on Bernstein Sign Classification that takes advantage of the geometry properties of Bernstein basis and […]

A New Sharp-Crease Bending Element for Folding and Wrinkling Surfaces and Volumes

Saket Patkar, Ning Jin, Ronald Fedkiw We present a novel sharp-crease bending element for the folding and wrinkling of surfaces and volumes. Based on a control curve specified by an artist or derived from internal stresses of a simulation, we create a piecewise linear curve at the resolution of the computational mesh. Then, the key […]

A Perceptual Control Space for Garment Simulation

Leonid Sigal, Moshe Mahler, Spencer Diaz, Kyna McIntosh, Elizabeth Carter, Timothy Richards, Jessica Hodgins We present a perceptual control space for simulation of cloth that works with any physical simulator, treating it as a black box. The perceptual control space provides intuitive, art-directable control over the simulation behavior based on a learned mapping from common […]

Real-time Dynamic Wrinkling of Coarse Animated Cloth

Russell Gillette, Craig Peters, Nicholas Vining, Essex Edwards, Alla Sheffer Dynamic folds and wrinkles are an important visual cue for creating believably dressed characters in virtual environments. Adding these fine details to real-time cloth visualization is challenging, as the low-quality cloth used for real-time applications often has no reference shape, an extremely low triangle count, […]

Efficient Simulation of Knitted Cloth using Persistent Contacts

Gabriel Cirio, Jorge Lopez-Moreno, Miguel Otaduy Knitted cloth is made of yarns that are stitched in regular patterns, and its macroscopic behavior is dictated by the contact interactions between such yarns. We propose an efficient representation of knitted cloth at the yarn level that treats yarn-yarn contacts as persistent, thereby avoiding expensive contact handling altogether. […]

Air Meshes for Robust Collision Handling

Matthias Mueller, Nuttapong Chentanez, Tae-Yong Kim, Miles Macklin We propose a new method for both collision detection and collision response geared towards handling complex deformable objects in close contact. Our method does not miss collision events between time steps and solves the challenging problem of untangling automatically and robustly. It is conceptually simple and straight […]

Yarn-Level Simulation of Woven Cloth

Gabriel Cirio, Jorge Lopez-Moreno, David Miraut, Miguel A. Otaduy The large-scale mechanical behavior of woven cloth is determined by the mechanical properties of the yarns, the weave pattern, and frictional contact between yarns. Using standard simulation methods for elastic rod models and yarn-yarn contact handling, the simulation of woven garments at realistic yarn densities is […]

Multi-layer skin simulation with adaptive constraints

Pengbo Li, Paul Kry We present an approach for physics based simulation of the wrinkling of multi-layer skin with heterogeneous material properties. Each layer of skin is simulated with an adaptive mesh, with the different layers coupled via constraints that only permit wrinkle deformation at wavelengths that match the physical properties of the multi-layer model. […]

Subspace Clothing Simulation Using Adaptive Bases

Fabian Hahn, Bernhard Thomaszewski, Stelian Coros, Robert W. Sumner, Forrester Cole, Mark Meyer, Tony DeRose, and Markus Gross We present a new approach to clothing simulation using low-dimensional linear subspaces with temporally adaptive bases. Our method exploits full-space simulation training data in order to construct a pool of low-dimensional bases distributed across pose space. For […]

Sensitivity-optimized Rigging for Example-based Real-Time Clothing Synthesis

Weiwei Xu, Noboyuki Umetani, Qianwen Chao, Jie Mao, Xiaogang Jin, Xin Tong We present a real-time solution for generating detailed clothing deformations from pre-computed clothing shape examples. Given an input pose, it synthesizes a clothing deformation by blending skinned clothing deformations of nearby examples controlled by the body skeleton. Observing that cloth deformation can be well modeled with sensitivity analysis […]
