Making virtual modeling as easy and intuitive as realclay manipulation is still an unsolved problem. This paper takes a step in this direction: in addition to offering standard fe...
This paper presents a new interaction system designed for hands-on 3D shape modeling and deformation through natural hand gestures. Our system is made of a Phantom haptic device c...
Force feedback coupled with a real-time physically realistic graphic display provides a human operator with an artificial sense of presence in a virtual environment. Furthermore,...
This paper describes the theory and implementation of a discrete mechanics model for deformable bodies, incorporating behavior such as motion, collision, deformation etc. The mode...
Abstract. We present a new method to simulate deformable volumetric objects interactively using finite elements. With quadratic basis functions and a non-linear strain tensor, we a...
