| Abstract | This paper addresses the problem of simulating deformations between objects and the hand of a synthetic character during a grasping process. A numerical method based on finite element theory allows us to take into account the active forces of the fingers on the object and the reactive forces of the object on the fingers. The method improves control of synthetic human behavior in a task level animation system because it provides information about the environment of a synthetic human and so can be compared to the sense of touch. Finite element theory currently used in engineering seems one of the best approaches for modeling both elastic and plastic deformation of objects, as well as shocks with or without penetration between deformable objects. We show that intrinsic properties of the method based on composition/decomposition of elements have an impact in computer animation. We also state that the use of the same method for modeling both objects and human bodies improves the modeling both objects and human bodies improves the modeling of the contacts between them. Moreover, it allows a realistic envelope deformation of the human fingers comparable to existing methods. To show what we can expect from the method, we apply it to the grasping and pressing of a ball. Our solution to the grasping problem is based on displacement commands instead of force commands used in robotics and human behavior. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
