Grid-Free Surface Tracking on the GPU
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)
We present the first mesh-based surface tracker that runs entirely on the GPU. The surface tracker is both completely grid-free and fast which makes it suitable for the use in a large, unbounded domain. The key idea for ...
Continuous Collision Detection Between Points and Signed Distance Fields
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
We present an algorithm for fast continuous collision detection between points and signed distance fields. Such robust queries are often needed in computer animation, haptics and virtual reality applications, but have so ...
A p-Multigrid Algorithm using Cubic Finite Elements for Efficient Deformation Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
We present a novel p-multigrid method for efficient simulation of co-rotational elasticity with higher-order finite elements. In contrast to other multigrid methods proposed for volumetric deformation, the resolution ...
Elasticity-based Clustering for Haptic Interaction with Heterogeneous Deformable Objects
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Physically-based simulation of heterogeneous objects remains computationally-demanding for many applications, especially when involving haptic interaction with virtual environments. In this paper, we introduce a novel ...
An Implicit Tensor-Mass Solver on the GPU for Soft Bodies Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
The realistic and interactive simulation of deformable objects has become a challenge in Computer Graphics. In this paper, we propose a GPU implementation of the resolution of the mechanical equations, using a semi-implicit ...
A Unified Topological-Physical Model for Adaptive Refinement
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
In Computer Graphics, physically-based simulation of deformable objects is a current challenge, and many efficient models have been developed to reach real-time performance. However, these models are often limited when ...
Connective Tissues Simulation on GPU
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)
Recent work in the field of medical simulation have led to real advances in the mechanical simulation of organs. However, it is important to notice that, despite the major role they may have in the interaction between ...
Implicit Mesh Generation using Volumetric Subdivision
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
In this paper, we present a novel approach for a tighter integration of 3D modeling and physically-based simulation. Instead of modeling 3D objects as surface models, we use a volumetric subdivision representation. Volumetric ...
Initial Steps for the Coupling of JavaScript Physics Engines with X3DOM
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)
During the past years, first physics engines based on JavaScript have been developed for web applications. These are capable of displaying virtual scenes much more realistically. Thus, new application areas can be opened ...
3D Mobility Learning and Regression of Articulated, Tracked Robotic Vehicles by Physics-based Optimization
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
Motion planning for robots operating on 3D rough terrain requires the synergy of various robotic capabilities, from sensing and perception to simulation, planning and prediction. In this paper, we focus on the higher level ...
