Donald H. House, John C. Keyser
Physics forms the basis for many of the
motions and behaviors seen in both the real world and in the
virtual worlds of animated films, visual effects, and
computer games. By describing the underlying physical
principles and then creating simulations based on these
principles, these computer-generated worlds are brought to
life. Physically Based Modeling and Animation goes behind
the scenes of computer animation and details the
mathematical and algorithmic foundations that are used to
determine the behavior underlying the movement of virtual
objects and materials. Dr. Donald House and Dr. John Keyser
offer an approachable, hands-on view of the equations and
programming that form the foundations of this field. They
guide readers from the beginnings of modeling and simulation
to more advanced techniques, enabling them to master what
they need to know in order to understand and create their
own animations.
