Integrating deformations between bodies and clothes

In this paper we present a framework for both skin and cloth deformation. T raditionally, skin and cloth deformations are managed by a non-unified stra tegy although the skin interacts on clothes and vice versa. In general, the skin is considered as a rigid surface on which the clothes have no effect. We propose in this paper a unified approach for cloth and body deformation . Our system is able to handle bath skin and cloth deformation with collisi on response. These deformations are managed with a particle system. The ski n deformation model is a hybrid model, where deformation due to the skeleto n motion is controlled geometrically, and where the collision response is h andled by a physical-based model. In case of collision among skin and cloth es, a reaction and friction forces are applied on both skin and cloth to av oid penetration. Copyright (C) 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
