The approach offers simplified, compact deriv atives, improved conditioning, and higher efficiency compared to tradition al methods. Applications include fundamental rigid-body probl...\n\n\nMagí Romanyà (Universidad Rey Juan Carlos) and Miguel A. Otaduy (Universidad R ey Juan Carlos, Meta Reality Labs Research)\n---------------------\nOffset Geometric Contact\n\nWe introduce Offset Geometric Contact (OGC), a groun dbreaking method offering "penetration-free for free" simulations of codim ensional objects. OGC efficiently constructs offset volumetric shapes to ensure stable, artifact-free collisions. Leveraging parallel GPU computati ons, it delivers real-time...\n\n\nAnka H. Chen (University of Utah, NVIDI A); Jerry Hsu and Ziheng Liu (University of Utah); Miles Macklin (NVIDIA); and Yin Yang and Cem Yuksel (University of Utah)\n---------------------\n C5D: Sequential Continuous Convex Collision Detection Using Cone Casting\n \nWe propose a fast, single-threaded continuous collision detection (CCD) algorithm for convex shapes under affine motion. By combining conservative advancement with a cone-casting approach, it avoids primitive-level overh ead and enables efficient integration into intersection-free simulation me thods ...\n\n\nXiaodi Yuan (University of California San Diego); Fanbo Xia ng (Hillbot Inc.); Yin Yang (University of Utah); and Hao Su (University o f California San Diego, Hillbot Inc.)\n---------------------\nPutting Rigi d Bodies to Rest\n\nWe identify stable orientations of any rigid shape, an d the probability that it will rest at these orientations if randomly drop ped on the ground. We use a differentiable inverse version of our method t o design and fabricate shapes with target resting behavior, such as dice w ith target, nonuniform p...\n\n\nHossein Baktash (Carnegie Mellon Universi ty), Nicholas Sharp (NVIDIA), Qingnan Zhou and Alec Jacobson (Adobe Resear ch), and Keenan Crane (Carnegie Mellon University)\n---------------------\ nRigid Bodies & Contacts - Interactive Discussion\n\nAfter the summary pre sentations, attendees will participate in an interactive discussion. Outsi de the room will be a series of poster boards for authors to gather around with the audience. Authors are invited to bring any material related to t heir paper that could instigate further conversation such...\n\n---------- -----------\nA Versatile Quaternion-Based Constrained Rigid Body Dynamics\ n\nWe present an implicitly-integrated, quaternion-based constrained Rigid Body Dynamics (RBD) that guarantees satisfaction of kinematic constraints , unifying the solution strategy for complex mechanical systems with arbit rary kinematic structures, by navigating subspaces spanned by constraint f orces a...\n\n\nGuirec Maloisel, Ruben Grandia, Christian Schumacher, Espe n Knoop, and Moritz Bächer (Disney Research)\n---------------------\nGeome tric Contact Potential\n\nWe present a systematic derivation of a continuu m potential defined for smooth and piecewise smooth surfaces, by identifyi ng a set of natural requirements for contact potentials.
