This research project aims to expand Symgery’s line of surgical training products by simulating cutting and tearing of physical models in real-time. Cutting and tearing of simulated models typically requires additional computational overhead due to post-processing of the volumetric mesh. However, our approach will render the process to be more efficient by using a hybrid model that combines continuum FEM models with mass-spring systems within a position based dynamics (PBD) framework. Implementation on a GPU and multi-core CPU will further improve performance.
