Multi-resolution isotropic strain limiting

In this paper we describe a fast strain-limiting method that allows stiff, incompliant materials to be simulated efficiently. Unlike prior approaches, which act on springs or individual strain components, this method acts on the strain tensors in a coordinate-invariant fashion allowing isotropic behavior. Our method applies to both twoand three-dimensional strains, and only requires computing the singular value decomposition of the deformation gradient, either a small 2
