Rest Shape Optimization for Sag-Free Discrete Elastic Rods

Tetsuya Takahashi, Christopher Batty We propose a new rest shape optimization framework to achieve sag-free simulations of discrete elastic rods. To optimize rest shape parameters, we formulate a minimization problem based on the kinetic energy with a regularizer while imposing box constraints on these parameters to ensure the system’s stability. Our method solves the resulting […]
