    • A Geometry-Shader-Based Adaptive Mesh Refinement Scheme Using Semiuniform Quad/ Triangle Patches and Warping 

      Knuth, Martin; Kohlhammer, Jörn; Kuijper, Arjan (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      In the field of garment simulation the resolution of the simulation mesh has a direct impact on visual quality. Unfortunately, an increase in mesh resolution introduces a much higher computational cost and potentially ...
    • GPU Accelerated Needle Insertion Simulation using Meshfree Methods 

      Shahingohar, Aria; deRibaupierre, Sandrine; Eagleson, Roy (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      Needle insertion is a common practice used in many different medical procedures. Therefore, simulation of needle insertion is of great importance for multiple purposes such as training, planning and robotic assisted ...
    • Interactive Deformations with Multigrid Skeletal Constraints 

      Georgii, Joachim; Lagler, Daniel; Dick, Christian; Westermann, Rüdiger (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      In this paper we present an interactive method for simulating deformable objects using skeletal constraints. We introduce a two-way coupling of a finite element model and a skeleton that is attached to this model. The ...
    • Interactive Simulation of a Continuum Mechanics based Torsional Thread 

      Larsson, Karl; Wallgren, Göran; Larson, Mats G. (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      This paper introduces a continuum mechanics based thread model for use in real-time simulation. The model includes both rotary inertia, shear deformation and torsion. It is based on a three-dimensional beam model, using a ...
    • A Modular Physical-Simulation Methodology 

      Schanda, Florian; Willis, Philip (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      Physical simulation is useful so that the behaviour of objects emerges from the actions performed on them. However, a simulation simulates only one thing: the mechanics of collision behaviour for example. Further physical ...
    • Normal and Friction Stabilization Techniques for Interactive Rigid Body Constraint-based Contact Force Computations 

      Silcowitz, Morten; Niebe, Sarah; Erleben, Kenny (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      We present a novel, yet simple, method for stabilization of normal forces. A normal stabilization term, carefully designed from hypotheses about interactive usability, is added to the contact force problem. Further, we ...
    • Optimization-based Fluid Simulation on Unstructured Meshes 

      Misztal, Marek Krzysztof; Bridson, Robert; Erleben, Kenny; Bærentzen, Jakob Andreas; Anton, François (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      We present a novel approach to fluid simulation, allowing us to take into account the surface energy in a precise manner. This new approach combines a novel, topology-adaptive approach to deformable interface tracking, ...
    • Simulating Human Collision Avoidance Using a Velocity-Based Approach 

      Karamouzas, Ioannis; Overmars, Mark (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      We present a velocity-based model for realistic collision avoidance among virtual characters. Our approach is elaborated from existing experimental data and is based on the simple hypothesis that an individual tries to ...
    • Topology-based Physical Simulation 

      Meseure, Philippe; Darles, Emmanuelle; Skapin, Xavier (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      This paper presents a framework to design mechanical models relying on a topological basis. Whereas naive topological models such as adjacency graphs provide low topological control, the use of efficient topological models ...
    • A Triangle Bending Constraint Model for Position-Based Dynamics 

      Kelager, Micky; Niebe, Sarah; Erleben, Kenny (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      We present a novel bending model and constraint creation method for position-based dynamics. Our new bending model is introduced as an alternative to the current state-of-the-art dihedral bending model. Our model is motivated ...
