Realistic hair modeling is a fundamental part of creating virtual humans in computer
graphics. This paper surveys the state of the art in the major topics of hair modeling …

Simulating human hair is recognized as one of the most difficult tasks in computer animation.
In this paper, we show that the Kirchhoff equations for dynamic, inextensible elastic rods can …

Our goal is to simulate the full hair geometry, consisting of approximately one hundred
thousand hairs on a typical human head. This will require scalable methods that can …

We present a new framework for simulating dynamic movements of complex hairstyles. The
proposed framework, which treats hair as a collection of wisps, includes new approaches to …

In this paper, we present an adaptive model for dynamically deforming hyper‐elastic rods. In
contrast to existing approaches, adaptively introduced control points are not governed by …

Forward dynamics is central to physically-based simulation and control of articulated bodies.
We present an adaptive algorithm for computing forward dynamics of articulated bodies …

Hair simulation remains one of the most challenging aspects of creating virtual characters.
Most research focuses on handling the massive geometric complexity of hundreds of …

Hair models for computer graphics consist of many curves representing individual hair
fibers. In current practice these curves are generated by ad hoc random processes, and in …

Thin elastic rods such as cables, phone coils, tree branches, or hair, are common objects in
the real world but computing their dynamics accurately remains challenging. The recent …

The murder of George Floyd and the worldwide protests that erupted in its wake have
foregrounded the pervasive nature of systemic racism. Graphics research is no exception, as …
