Fully implicit frictional dynamics with soft constraints
Dynamics simulation with frictional contacts is important for a wide range of
applications, from cloth simulation to object manipulation. Recent methods
using smoothed friction forces have enabled robust and differentiable
simulation of elastodynamics with friction. However, the resulting frictional
behaviors can be qualitatively inaccurate and may not converge to analytic
solutions. Here we propose an alternative, fully implicit, formulation for
simulating elastodynamics subject to frictional contacts with realistic
friction behavior. Furthermore, we demonstrate how higher-order time
integration can be used in our method, as well as in incremental potential
methods. We develop an inexact Newton method with forward-mode automatic
differentiation that simplifies the implementation and improves performance.
Finally, we show how our method can be extended to respond to volume changes
using a unified penalty function derived from first principles and capable of
emulating compressible as well as nearly incompressible media
Large steps in cloth simulation
The bottle-neck in most cloth simulation systems is that time steps must be small to avoid numerical instability. This paper describes a cloth simulation system that can stably take large time steps. The simulation system couples a new technique for enforcing constraints on individual cloth particles with an implicit integration method. The simulator models cloth as a triangular mesh, with internal cloth forces derived using a simple continuum formulation that supports modeling operations such as local anisotropic stretch or compression; a unified treatment of damping forces is included as well. The implicit integration method generates a large, unbanded sparse linear system at each time step which is solved using a modified conjugate gradient method that simultaneously enforces particles ’ constraints. The constraints are always maintained exactly, independent of the number of conjugate gradient iterations, which is typically small. The resulting simulation system is significantly faster than previous accounts of cloth simulation systems in the literature.

Realistic Cloth Animation
In this paper we present a model for the realistic simulation of the mechanical behavior of cloth based on the Finite
Elements Method. The use of this method in a material with the elastic properties of cloth has some problems of
convergence to which we propose a solution in this work
