A novel interactive virtual needle insertion simulation is presented. Simulation models are based upon planar tissue deformations and forces measured during needle insertion exper...
Simulations for training and analysis incorporating haptic feedback are becoming more popular and the sophistication of these simulations is increasing. Many systems now allow a r...
In this paper, we propose solutions to real time simulation and interaction of deformable objects in virtual reality. Firstly, we present LEM - Long Element Method, a method creat...
Soft objects are often desired in applications such as virtual surgery training. Soft object simulations are computationally intensive because object deformation involves numerica...
Abstract Real-time simulation of deformable objects involves many computational challenges to be solved, particularly in the context of haptic applications, where high update rates...
