Compact Support Radial Basis Functions for Soft Tissue Deformation
We describe the use of compact support radial basis functions (CSRBFs) for simulation of soft tissue deformation. CSRBFs allow surface and volumetric deformations to be computed i...

Image-Based Simulation of Gaseous Material
We present a method for real-time image based simulation of gaseous material such as fire and smoke. We model the kinematics of these phenomena by a mass-spring system, and their ...

Real-time 3D fire simulation using a spring-mass model
We present a method for real-time simulation of 3dimensional fire inspired by an old mechanical trick known as the “silk torch”. Motivated by the proven illusive effect of si...
