Interactive Animation of Cloth-like Objects for Virtual Reality

چکیده
In this chapter, we propose a stable and efficient algorithm for animating cloth-like materials using mass-spring systems. An integration scheme derived from implicit integration allows us to obtain interactive realistic animation of any mass-spring network. We alleviate the need to solve a linear system through the use of a predictor-corrector approach: We first compute a rapid approximation of the implicit integration, then we correct this estimate in a post-step process to preserve momentum. Combined with a post-step process to implement collisions and other constraints, this method provides a simple, stable and tunable model for cloth-like objects suitable for virtual reality. An implementation in a VR environment demonstrates this approach through a series of examples.

Interactive animation of cloth-like objects in virtual reality
Modeling and animation of cloth has experienced important developments in recent years. As a consequence, complex textile models can be used to realistically drape objects or human characters in a fairly efficient way. However, real-time realistic simulation remains a major challenge, even if applications are numerous, from rapid prototyping to e-commerce. In this paper, we present a stable, re...
متن کاملReal-Time Animation of Complex Virtual Cloth with Physical Plausibility and Numerical Stability
People are familiar with the actual movement of real objects in everyday life so that a plausible computer animation requires high degree of physical correctness. Therefore, physically simulation should be employed when the generated animation is supposed to reproduce the real world in virtual environments. However, the simulation of a non-rigid object is much more time-consuming than that of a...

This paper presents the application of rigid body simulation for assembly tasks in a virtual environment and the extension of this system to the real-time simulation of deformable cables. Presently our virtual reality tools evaluate virtual prototypes based on CAD models of the design department. We motivate the need for deformable objects, especially cables, by practical examples and explain o...

There have been little efforts to animate paper objects in interactive or realtime VR environments. Paper can be represented with the well-known massspring model, whose animation is relatively easy compared with rigid body models or fluid simulation. However, animating paper with the straightforward massspring model results in a serious numerical problem. The properties of plain paper require t...
متن کاملDynamic Simulation of Inextensible Cloth
In this paper an impulse-based method for cloth simulation is presented. The simulation of cloth is required in different application areas like computer animation, virtual reality or computer games. Simulation methods often assume that cloth is an elastic material. With this assumption the simulation can be performed very efficiently using spring forces. The problem is that many textiles canno...
