Rahul Sheth, Wenlong Lu, Yue Yu, Ronald Fedkiw We propose a novel framework for simulating reduced deformable bodies that fully accounts for linear and angular momentum conservation even in the presence of collision, contact, articulation, and other desirable effects. This was … Continue reading →

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 … Continue reading →

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 … Continue reading →

Desai Chen, David I.W. Levin, Shinjiro Sueda, Wojciech Matusik Crafting the behavior of a deformable object is difficult—whether it is a biomechanically accurate character model or a new multimaterial 3D printable design. Getting it right requires constant iteration, performed either … Continue reading →

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 … Continue reading →

Daniel Ram, Theodore Gast, Chenfanfu Jiang, Craig Schroeder, Alexey Stomakhin, Joseph Teran, Pirouz Kavehpour We present a new Material Point Method (MPM) for simulating viscoelastic fluids, foams and sponges. We design our discretization from the upper convected derivative terms in … Continue reading →

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 … Continue reading →

Tobias Martin, Nobuyuki Umetani, Bernd Bickel This paper introduces “OmniAD,” a novel data-driven pipeline to model and acquire the aerodynamics of three-dimensional rigid objects. Traditionally, aerodynamics are examined through elaborate wind tunnel experiments or expensive fluid dynamics computations, and are only measured … Continue reading →

Jan Bender, Dan Koschier In this paper we introduce an efficient and stable implicit SPH method for the physically-based simulation of incompressible fluids. In the area of computer graphics the most efficient SPH approaches focus solely on the correction of … Continue reading →

Omri Azencot, Orestis Vantzos, Max Wardetzky, Martin Rumpf, Mirela Ben-Chen The motion of a thin viscous film of fluid on a curved surface exhibits many intricate visual phenomena, which are challenging to simulate using existing techniques. A possible alternative is … Continue reading →
