Graphical Modeling and Animation of Brittle Fracture
In this paper, we augment existing techniques for simulating flexible objects to include models for crack initiation and propagation in three-dimensional volumes. By analyzing th...

A Model of Visual Adaptation for Realistic Image Synthesis
In this paper we develop a computational model of visual adaptation for realistic image synthesis based on psychophysical experiments. The model captures the changes in threshold ...

Modeling surfaces of arbitrary topology using manifolds
We describe an extension of B-splines to surfacesof arbitrary topology, including arbitrary boundaries. The technique inherits many of the properties of B-splines: local control, ...

Real-Time Acoustic Modeling for Distributed Virtual Environments
Realistic acoustic modeling is essential for spatializing sound in distributed virtual environments where multiple networked users move around and interact visually and aurally in...

Anatomy-based modeling of the human musculature
Artists study anatomy to understand the relationship between exterior form and the structures responsible for creating it. In this paper we follow a similar approach in developing...
