Physically Based Method for Cloth Deformation

Physically-based method is the most popular approach for simulating textile. For obtaining realistic cloth animation, some related factors need to be considered, including animation model, material properties, integration technique etc. Internal and external forces are accumulated from which accelerations are computed based on dynamic equation. An integration method is then used to update velocities and positions of the object. In this paper, we proposed a novel method to simulate cloth animation. The in-plane forces are derived based on continuum model, and out-of-plane forces are added discretely. We use implicit integration method to solve motion equation. In addition, constraints are imposed to avoid penetration. Compared with other existing method, the proposed method can simulate the non-uniform wrinkled cloth with different material property, but also is stability.
