[SOLVED] Soft-Rigid collision detection algorithms

[francesco.fz]

Hi,
I’m a student of engineering at Napoli. I’m searching for the soft-rigid collision detection algorithms that are implemented in SOFA. It would be nice if there were some papers describing some of them. Someone could help me to find them? Thank you.
Kind regards.
Francesco

Hi Francesco,

I am no expert in collisions and constraints.
However, you can first have a look at the book chapter about SOFA.
There is also many publications using collision detection in SOFA.
I found the following ones:

• Constraint-based haptic rendering of multirate compliant mechanisms
• Volume Contact Constraints at Arbitrary Resolution

Hope this helps.
If you have more precise questions, I could put you in contact with the associated SOFA developer.

Cheers,

Hugo

Dear Francesco,

I will close this topic.
If you have more specific questions about collision detection, please do not hesitate to create a new forum topic.

Best,

Hugo
