Research

I am interested in physics simulation, physics-based animation, computational mechanics, and AI for simulation, with a focus on applying these techniques to robotic applications. Selected publications.

We present six thin plate/shell models, all featuring constant bending energy Hessians, which offer significant benefits for implicit simulations using thin plate/shell models. In the source code repository libThinPlateShells, we provide 13 different bending formulations for researchers and practitioners.

We present a computational model in which the membrane model effectively mitigates the sharp creasing artifact in cloth simulation, while incorporating an efficient bending model.
