In this paper we propose an e cient technique for the animation of exible objects Mass spring model was employed to represent the exible objects The easiest approach to animation with mass spring model is explicit Euler method but the explicit Euler method has serious disadvantage that it su ers from instability problem The implicit integration method is a possible solution to overcome the inst...

We present creep experiments on fiber composite materials. Recorded strain rates and acoustic emission (AE) rates exhibit both a power law relaxation in the primary creep regime and a power-law acceleration before global failure. In particular, we observe time-to-failure power laws in the tertiary regime for acoustic emissions over four decades in time. We also discover correlations between som...

This paper presents an application of evolutionary genetic techniques to the identification of internal parameters of a mass-spring physically-based animation model. A physical model of fabrics is first presented. It uses a mass-spring mesh and an inverse dynamics procedure in order to model the non-linear elasticity of fabrics. A method to identify the internal parameters of the model from geo...
