Deforming object when more than a certain force is applied

[Suwan]

Hello,

Is there any method which makes an object deformed(broken) when more than a certain force is applied?
Is there any method which makes an piece of an object pulled out when more than a certain force is applied?

I would be appreciate for any info.

Dear @suwan,

I think what you are looking for is a fracture model. This does not exist in SOFA, however, the API is available. As you can see some research teams already worked a bit on this for surface and volumetric cases. For instance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCed9fAs17U
If you are interested, I can provide you the contacts.

Dear @Hugo,

Yes, I am interested in it.
Actually I hope to get code snippet using SOFA API, which enables to simulate a simple fracture model, if possible.
So I am going to implement a plugin for my purpose.

Thank you.

Best regards,
Suwan
