In this paper, we propose a complete model handling the physical simulation of deformable
1D objects. We formulate continuous expressions for stretching, bending and twisting …

In this work, we propose interactive and physically based animation of one-dimensional
deformable models using geometrically exact energy formulation. The proposed mechanical …

Designing the layouts and simulating the assembly of cables are based on flexible cable
modeling technology. In this paper, we review the methods used to model deformable cable …

Written by researchers who have helped found and shape the field, this book is a definitive
introduction to geometric modeling. The authors present all of the necessary techniques for …

This paper presents some improvements of a previous continuous parametric model for
dynamic animation of curvilinear objects called Dynamic Material Splines (DMS). It begins …

Details can be added to spline surfaces by applying displacement maps. However, the
computational intensity of displacement mapping prevents its use for interactive design. In …

Elastic rods produce complex nonlinear motion and are essential for animating thin strands
such as hairs and ropes. However their simulation using Position-Based Dynamics …

For software tools currently used in industry for computer aided design (CAD), digital mock-
up and virtual assembly there is an increasing demand to handle not only rigid geometries …

We present a novel method to simulate Cosserat rods with Projective Dynamics (PD). The
proposed method is both numerically robust and accurate with respect to the underlying …

Strandsare thin elastic solids that are visually well approximated as smooth curves, and yet
possess essential physical behaviors characteristic of solid objects such as twisting …
