A robust and tractable contact model for dynamic robotic simulation
Existing contact modeling in rigid body simulation is inadequate for robotics: no algorithms guarantee both convergence and nonpenetration at multiple contact points in the presen...

An Adaptive Contact Model for the Robust Simulation of Knots
In this paper, we present an adaptive model for dynamically deforming hyper-elastic rods. In contrast to existing approaches, adaptively introduced control points are not governed...
