This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book serves as a practical guide to simulation of 3D deformable solids using the Finite Element Method (FEM). It reviews a number of topics related to the theory and implementation of FEM approaches: measures of deformation, constitutive laws of nonlinear materials, tetrahedral discretizations, and model reduction techniques for real-time simulation. Simulations of deformable solids are important in many applications in computer graphics, including film special effects, computer games, and virtual surgery. The Finite Element Method has become a popular tool in many such applications. Variants of FEM catering to both offline and real-time simulation have had a mature presence in computer graphics literature. This book is designed for readers familiar with numerical simulation in computer graphics, who would like to obtain a cohesive picture of the various FEM simulation methods available, their strengths and weaknesses, and their applicability in various simulation scenarios. The book is also a practical implementation guide for the visual effects developer, offering a lean yet adequate synopsis of the underlying mathematical theory. Chapter 1 introduces the quantitative descriptions used to capture the deformation of elastic solids, the concept of strain energy, and discusses how force and stress result as a response to deformation. Chapter 2 reviews a number of constitutive models, i.e., analytical laws linking deformation to the resulting force that has successfully been used in various graphics-oriented simulation tasks. Chapter 3 summarizes how deformation and force can be computed discretely on a tetrahedral mesh, and how an implicit integrator can be structured around this discretization. Finally, chapter 4 presents the state of the art in model reduction techniques for real-time FEM solid simulation and discusses which techniques are suitable for which applications. Topics discussed in this chapter include linear modal analysis, modal warping, subspace simulation, and domain decomposition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The computational modelling of deformations has been actively studied for the last thirty years. This is mainly due to its large range of applications that include computer animation, medical imaging, shape estimation, face deformation as well as other parts of the human body, and object tracking. In addition, these advances have been supported by the evolution of computer processing capabilities, enabling realism in a more sophisticated way. This book encompasses relevant works of expert researchers in the field of deformation models and their applications. The book is divided into two main parts. The first part presents recent object deformation techniques from the point of view of computer graphics and computer animation. The second part of this book presents six works that study deformations from a computer vision point of view with a common characteristic: deformations are applied in real world applications. The primary audience for this work are researchers from different multidisciplinary fields, such as those related with Computer Graphics, Computer Vision, Computer Imaging, Biomedicine, Bioengineering, Mathematics, Physics, Medical Imaging and Medicine.

Book excerpt: Modeling the behavior of deformable virtual objects has important applications in computer graphics. There are two prevalent approaches for modeling deformable objects, an active one by deforming existing virtual models and a passive one by capturing the geometry and motion of real objects. This thesis explores the problem of modeling and acquisition of objects undergoing deformations, and proposes a set of practical deformation and capturing tools. The first contribution is a new approach to model deformation that incorporates non-uniform materials into the geometric deformation framework. This technique provides a simple and intuitive method to control the deformation using material properties that can be specified by the user with an intuitive interface or can be learned from a sequence of sample deformations facilitating realistic looking results. Some deformable objects such as garments exhibit a complex behavior under motion and thus are difficult to model or simulate, making them suitable target for capture methods. Methods for capturing garments usually use special markers printed on the fabric to establish temporally coherent correspondences between frames. Unfortunately, this approach is tedious and prevents the capture of interesting, off-the-shelf fabrics. A marker-free approach to capturing garment motion that avoids these problems is presented in chapter three. The method establishes temporally coherent parameterizations between incomplete geometries that are extracted at each time step using a multiview stereo algorithm, and the missing geometry is filled in using a template. Garment motion is characterized by dynamic high-frequency folds. However, these folds tend to be shallow, making them difficult to capture. A new method for reintroducing folds into the sequence using data-driven dynamic wrinkling is presented in chapter four. The method first estimates the folds in the video footage and then wrinkle the surface using space-time deformation. The.

Download or read book Graphical Simulation of Deformable Models written by Jianping Cai and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-07 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers dynamic simulation of deformable objects, which is one of the most challenging tasks in computer graphics and visualization. It focuses on the simulation of deformable models with anisotropic materials, one of the less common approaches in the existing research. Both physically-based and geometrically-based approaches are examined. The authors start with transversely isotropic materials for the simulation of deformable objects with fibrous structures. Next, they introduce a fiber-field incorporated corotational finite element model (CLFEM) that works directly with a constitutive model of transversely isotropic material. A smooth fiber-field is used to establish the local frames for each element. To introduce deformation simulation for orthotropic materials, an orthotropic deformation controlling frame-field is conceptualized and a frame construction tool is developed for users to define the desired material properties. The orthotropic frame-field is coupled with the CLFEM model to complete an orthotropic deformable model. Finally, the authors present an integrated real-time system for animation of skeletal characters with anisotropic tissues. To solve the problems of volume distortion and high computational costs, a strain-based PBD framework for skeletal animation is explained; natural secondary motion of soft tissues is another benefit. The book is written for those researchers who would like to develop their own algorithms. The key mathematical and computational concepts are presented together with illustrations and working examples. It can also be used as a reference book for graduate students and senior undergraduates in the areas of computer graphics, computer animation, and virtual reality. Academics, researchers, and professionals will find this to be an exceptional resource.
