    • Accelerating Distributed Graphical Fluid Simulations with Micro‐partitioning 

      Qu, Hang; Mashayekhi, Omid; Shah, Chinmayee; Levis, Philip (© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)
      Graphical fluid simulations are CPU‐bound. Parallelizing simulations on hundreds of cores in the computing cloud would make them faster, but requires evenly balancing load across nodes. Good load balancing depends on manual ...
    • Detection and Synthesis of Full‐Body Environment Interactions for Virtual Humans 

      Juarez‐Perez, A.; Kallmann, M. (© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)
      We present a new methodology for enabling virtual humans to autonomously detect and perform complex full‐body interactions with their environments. Given a parameterized walking controller and a set of motion‐captured ...
    • The Matchstick Model for Anisotropic Friction Cones 

      Erleben, K.; Macklin, M.; Andrews, S.; Kry, P. G. (© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)
      Inspired by frictional behaviour that is observed when sliding matchsticks against one another at different angles, we propose a phenomenological anisotropic friction model for structured surfaces. Our model interpolates ...
    • Muscle and Fascia Simulation with Extended Position Based Dynamics 

      Romeo, M.; Monteagudo, C.; Sánchez‐Quirós, D. (© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)
      Recent research on muscle and fascia simulation for visual effects relies on numerical methods such as the finite element method or finite volume method. These approaches produce realistic results, but require high ...
    • RAS: A Data‐Driven Rigidity‐Aware Skinning Model For 3D Facial Animation 

      Liu, S‐L.; Liu, Y.; Dong, L‐F.; Tong, X. (© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)
      We present a novel data‐driven skinning model—rigidity‐aware skinning (RAS) model, for simulating both active and passive 3D facial animation of different identities in real time. Our model builds upon a linear blend ...
    • Simulating the Evolution of Ancient Fortified Cities 

      Mas, Albert; Martin, Ignacio; Patow, Gustavo (© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)
      Ancient cities and castles are ubiquitous cultural heritage structures all over Europe, and countless digital creations (e.g. movies and games) use them for storytelling. However, they got little or no attention in the ...
    • Synthesizing Character Animation with Smoothly Decomposed Motion Layers 

      Eom, Haegwang; Choi, Byungkuk; Cho, Kyungmin; Jung, Sunjin; Hong, Seokpyo; Noh, Junyong (© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)
      The processing of captured motion is an essential task for undertaking the synthesis of high‐quality character animation. The motion decomposition techniques investigated in prior work extract meaningful motion primitives ...
