Medical Animations: A Survey and a Research Agenda
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
Animation is a potentially powerful instrument to convey complex information with movements, smooth transitions between different states that employ the strong human capabilities to perceive and interpret motion. Animation ...
View-Dependent Adaptive Cloth Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
This paper describes a method for view-dependent cloth simulation using dynamically adaptive mesh refinement and coarsening. Given a prescribed camera motion, the method adjusts the criteria controlling refinement to account ...
Occlusion-free Camera Control for Multiple Targets
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
Maintaining the visibility of target objects is a fundamental problem in automatic camera control for 3D graphics applications. Practical real-time camera control algorithms generally only incorporate mechanisms for the ...
Consistent Surface Model for SPH-based Fluid Transport
(ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Association, 2013)
Surface effects play an essential role in fluid simulations. A vast number of dynamics including wetting of surfaces, cleansing, and foam dynamics are based on surface-surface and surface-bulk interactions, which in turn ...
The Intersection Contour Minimization Method for Untangling Oriented Deformable Surfaces
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
The Intersection Contour Minimization (ICM) method [VM06] has been proven to be an effective history-free algorithm for resolving collisions between non-oriented deformable surfaces. In many circumstances, however, surface ...
Real-Time Sound Synthesis for Paper Material Based on Geometric Analysis
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
In this article, we present the first method to generate plausible sounds while animating crumpling virtual paper in real time. Our method handles shape-dependent friction and crumpling sounds which typically occur when ...
Asynchronous Implicit Backward Euler Integration
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
In standard deformable object simulation in computer animation, all the mesh elements or vertices are timestepped synchronously, i.e., under the same timestep. Previous asynchronous methods have been largely limited to ...
Statistical Simulation of Rigid Bodies
(ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Association, 2009)
We describe a method for replacing certain stages of rigid body simulation with a statistically-based approximation. We begin by collecting statistical data regarding changes in linear and angular momentum for collisions ...
Accurate Surface Embedding for Higher Order Finite Elements
(ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Association, 2013)
In this paper we present a novel approach to efficiently simulate the deformation of highly detailed meshes using higher order finite elements (FE). An efficient algorithm based on non-linear optimization is proposed in ...
Controlling Liquids Using Meshes
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
We present an approach for artist-directed animation of liquids using multiple levels of control over the simulation, ranging from the overall tracking of desired shapes to highly detailed secondary effects such as dripping ...
