Highly accurate biomolecular electrostatics in continuum dielectric environments
: Implicit solvent models based on the Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) equation are frequently used to describe the interactions of a biomolecule with its dielectric continuum environment. ...

Skin: A Constructive Approach to Modeling Free-Form Shapes
We present a new particle-based surface representation with which a user can interactively sculpt free-form surfaces. The particles maintain mesh connectivity and operate under ru...

Solving Elliptic Finite Element Systems in Near-Linear Time with Support Preconditioners
We consider linear systems arising from the use of the finite element method for solving a certain class of linear elliptic problems. Our main result is that these linear systems, ...

Locking-free finite elements for the Reissner-Mindlin plate
Two new families of Reissner-Mindlin triangular finite elements are analyzed. One family, generalizing an element proposed by Zienkiewicz and Lefebvre, approximates (for k 1) the ...

Fast viscoelastic behavior with thin features
We introduce a method for efficiently animating a wide range of deformable materials. We combine a high resolution surface mesh with a tetrahedral finite element simulator that ma...
