This paper shows how range-flow can help to estimate the elastic constants of complete objects. In our framework, the object is deformed actively by a robotic device pushing into ...

For a surface patch on a smooth, two-dimensional surface in IR3 , low-distortion parameterizations are described in terms of minimizers of suitable energy functionals. Appropriate...

In this paper we present a GPU-based multigrid approach for simulating elastic deformable objects in real time. Our method is based on a finite element discretization of the defo...
