Practical Physics for Articulated Characters

This presentation describes a set of techniques for implementing a fast and stable dynamics simulator for articulated characters using an analytical constraint approach combined with Featherstone’s linear-time forward dynamics algorithm. It presents an efficient method for enforcing multiple simultaneous constraints on an articulated character in order to control the character’s motion and mode...

Physics, Technology and Practical Considerations

Screen-film image receptors have been the standard detector used in conventional mammography. New developments in detector technology and computers are altering the landscape of mammography imaging. Full Field Digital Mammography (FFDM) offers the promise of revolutionizing the practice of mammography through its superior dose and contrast performance. Advanced applications made possible throug...

Quantum Physics: A Case for Anti-Realism?

quantum physics: a case for anti-realism?

the aim of the present paper is to sbo» that anti-realism in science, 1vhich has a1;guab/y become more fashionable in recentyears, contrary to tuha: its proponents assert, cannot make use of quantum mechanics and its impressiue achievements as a frump card in justifying its claims. i will argue that scientific anti-realism far from providing scientific communiry with a progressive methodologica...
