Analytically Integratable Zero-restlength Springs for Capturing Dynamic Modes unrepresented by Quasistatic Neural Networks

Yongxu Jin , Yushan Han , Zhenglin Geng , Joseph Teran , Ronald Fedkiw We present a novel paradigm for modeling certain types of dynamic simulation in real-time with the aid of neural networks. In order to significantly reduce the requirements on data (especially time-dependent data), as well as decrease generalization error, our approach utilizes […]

Compact Poisson Filters for Fast Fluid Simulation

Amir Hossein Rabbani, Jean-Philippe Guertin , Damien Rioux-Lavoie, Arnaud Schoentgen, Kaitai Tong, Alexandre Sirois-Vigneux, Derek Nowrouzezahrai Poisson equations appear in many graphics settings including, but not limited to, physics-based fluid simulation. Numerical solvers for such problems strike context-specific memory, performance, stability and accuracy trade-offs. We propose a new Poisson filter-based solver that balances between the […]

Implicit Neural Representation for Physics-driven Actuated Soft Bodies

Lingchen Yang, Byungsoo Kim, Gaspard Zoss, Baran Gözcü, Markus Gross, Barbara Solenthaler Active soft bodies can affect their shape through an internal actuation mechanism that induces a deformation. Similar to recent work, this paper utilizes a differentiable, quasi-static, and physics-based simulation layer to optimize for actuation signals parameterized by neural networks. Our key contribution is […]

Simulation and Optimization of Magnetoelastic Thin Shells

Xuwen Chen, Xingyu Ni, Bo Zhu, Bin Wang, Baoquan Chen Magnetoelastic thin shells exhibit great potential in realizing versatile functionalities through a broad range of combination of material stiffness, remnant magnetization intensity, and external magnetic stimuli. In this paper, we propose a novel computational method for forward simulation and inverse design of magnetoelastic thin shells. […]
