Nonlinear hyperelastic energies play a key role in capturing the fleshy appearance of virtual
characters. Real-world, volume-preserving biological tissues have Poisson's ratios near 1/2 …

We introduce Loki, a new framework for robust simulation of fluid, rigid, and deformable
objects with non-compromising fidelity on any single element, and capabilities for coupling …

We propose a new embedded finite element method for the linear advection–diffusion
equation and the laminar and turbulent incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. The …

With existing programming tools, writing high-performance simulation code is labor intensive
and requires sacrificing readability and portability. The alternative is to prototype simulations …

Abstract Recently, the Shifted Boundary Method (SBM) was proposed within the class of
unfitted (or immersed, or embedded) finite element methods. By reformulating the original …

Abstract The Shifted Boundary Method (SBM) belongs to the class of unfitted (or immersed,
or embedded) finite element methods and was recently introduced for the Poisson, linear …

We propose a method of increasing the apparent spatial resolution of an existing liquid
simulation. Previous approaches to this “up-resing” problem have focused on increasing the …

Designing programming environments for physical simulation is challenging because
simulations rely on diverse algorithms and geometric domains. These challenges are …

Modern geometry processsing algorithms depend on an ever-growing toolbox of
fundamental sub-routines and data structures. Prototyping from scratch requires much time …

Control planes of cloud frameworks trade off between scheduling granularity and
performance. Centralized systems schedule at task granularity, but only schedule a few …
