efficient collide detection improvements and questions

2023-03-01T08:13:57+00:00

Hi,
I am working on an offline collision program. The meshes are rigid bodies of a complex machine moving (models are convex meshes converted from creo/proe cad systems).

I have positions of each mesh depending on the time. For optimisation reasons, I have positions only when something is moving at least 0.5mm. This implies non constant delta times.
eg , positions for t0=0ms , t1=4ms, t2=10ms,t3=50ms ......(this is not real , but to illustrate ....)

I started with a basic collide algorithm in which at each time frame I am computing and setting a new physics world with the whole scene to perform collisions.
It works, but I is not really efficient regarding performance.

I would like now migrate to a continuous detection collision mode, in which I will set positions (transformation matrix) of each mesh, without reconstructiong the whole physics world. Which orientations and modifications should be involved regarding my initial implementation ?

Here is basically the code I am using for each frame (with ammojs but does not sound being a pb).

Code:

 this._broadphase = new this.ammoInjection.btDbvtBroadphase(); this._collisionConfiguration = new this.ammoInjection.btDefaultCollisionConfiguration(); this._dispatcher = new this.ammoInjection.btCollisionDispatcher(this._collisionConfiguration); this._physicsWorld = new this.ammoInjection.btCollisionWorld(        this._dispatcher,        this._broadphase,        this._collisionConfiguration      );for each mesh:    const shape = new this.ammoInjection.btConvexTriangleMeshShape(trimesh, true);    const m = new this.ammoInjection.btCollisionObject();    m.setCollisionShape(shape);    this._physicsWorld.addCollisionObject(m, mesh.collisionGroup, mesh.collisionMask);this._physicsWorld.performDiscreteCollisionDetection();// collect manifolds ...
