Introduction

• Comparing techniques in both domains:– Integration Techniques– Collision Detection– Haptic Rendering


Cloth Simulation Haptics


3

Overview

• Cloth Simulation• Integration Techniques• Collision Detection• Haptic Rendering• Haptic Cloth Rendering


4

Cloth Simulation

• Using Mass Spring Systems– Combination of Particles and Springs– Several techniques to connect particles


5

Overview



6

Integration Techniques

• Moving the Cloth?– Movement through Newton’s dynamics– Position/Velocity of the particles need to

be updated– Represented as Initial Value Problem– IVP can be solved using a first order

Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE)– Several numerical methods exist

• Explicit, Implicit, IMEX, Verlet Integration,…


7


• Verlet Integration– Popular in Molecular Dynamics– Basic Verlet Scheme– High accuracy: O(h4) with only one force

evaluation– No explicit Velocity computation– Two other schemes

• Velocity• Leapfrog


8


• After IT step: Inverse Dynamics– Changing the positions/velocities– Stability increases


9

Overview



10

Collision Detection

• Achieving an interactive cloth (e.g. draping a table)

• Two phases– Broad phase: efficiently decreases the

number of possibly colliding objects– Narrow phase: detects the areas of an

object that possibly collides and checks these areas for collision


11

Collision Detection

• Only Object-Object collisions• Main problem

– Deformable Object Pre-computed structure becomes invalid

• Two popular techniques– Bounding Volume Hierarchies (BVH)– Spatial Subdivision


12

Bounding Volume Hierachies

• BVH is a tree structure• Primitives are recursively subdivided• Pre-computed but here also

rebuild/repair• Bounding Volumes

– Sphere, AABB, OBB,…– Good Enclosing + Fast Intersection test


13

• Arity is important! – # nodes to update– # recursion depth

• Collision testing is performed top-down

• Repairing the BVH– Top-down, Bottom-up or Hybrid – Brown et al. combine Bottom-up with a

priority queue sorted on depth

Bounding Volume Hierachies


14

Spatial Subdivision

• Divide the objects in space– Subdivision of the Complete Space– Each object has its own subdivision

• Optimized Spatial Hashing (OSH)– Divide the space implicitly into small grid cells– Hash function: 3D grid cells 1D hash table– No 3D Structure! – Infinite Regular Spatial

Grids– Two phases


15

Overview



16

Haptic Rendering

• Two popular Rigid Body techniques– Penalty Based Methods

• Uses penetration depth• Pop-Through/Multiple Objects

– Constraint Based Methods• Solution to above

problems • Representative object

attached to the userusing a spring


17

Haptic Rendering

• High cost of dynamic simulation Adapt HR algorithm

– Intermediate model [Mark et al.]

• Plane updated at simulation speed

– Local model [Mendoza et al.]

• Treat part of object as rigid body in the haptic loop

– Forcegrid [Mazella et al.]

• Uniform grid that functions as a buffer structure


18

Overview



19


• Choose appropriate techniques• Cloth Simulation

– Some forces: Gravity, Viscous drag– Rectangular surface – Cloth’s mass– Smooth Shading– Texturing


20


• Integration:– Empirically

• Taxonomy M. Hauth• Comparison of Implemented ITs

– Mathematically • Second most stable/accurate

Leapfrog Verlet


21


• Haptic Rendering– Realized using HAL– Constraint Based Methods [Ruspini et al.]

– Force Shading [Morgenbesser et al.]

– Cloth simulator integrated as a separate library

• Implemented and compared the other Collision Detection Techniques


22


• Sphere and AABB Bounding Volume Hierarchies with possible arity of 2 or 4– Modification of the repair algorithm of Brown et

al.• Priority queue is sorted on IDs • Last added parent is saved • Use array (see Table)• Recursion is

completely removed!


23


• Optimized Spatial Hashing– Removed the first phase

• Evaluation of the CD algorithms


24


• Comparison in update time (#updates <> Ms)

Conclusion

• Who Won?– In our situation a sphere BVH with arity

4 is the best CD algorithm.

• Still a few problems– Force discontinuities arise– Solutions:

• Interpolate between two cloth representations

• Integrate locally at haptic update rate
