Soft Body Parameterization
Posted: Thu Oct 16, 2008 12:22 pm
Hello,
i am currently working on a project with goal the simulation of clay modeling (not sculpting as this is the same in my mind as terrain deformation). For example if the user decides to apply pressure on the bottom of clay some mass should be transfered upwards.
At first i thought that some good parameterized soft bodies would do the work. I tried to play a bit with the demo source of soft bodies and i have some questions. Can a soft body through parameterization loose it's elasticity but still achieve volume preservation (not shape)?
If anyone has some experience with this subject i would appreciate his answer.
