PHYSICALLY BASED SIMULATION METHODS FOR MODELING AND ANIMATING TWO- AND THREE-DIMENSIONAL DEFORMABLE OBJECTS

摘要

The present invention relates generally to computer graphics applications, and more particularly to systems and methods for implementing two- and three-dimensional computer graphics modeling and animation of deformable objects in a simulated environment. More preferably, the present invention relates to computer or visual graphics applications using finite-element based and other physically based modeling or simulation methods.
