Soft Body Virtual Cutting using Projective Dynamics

Overview

Academic prototyping project for soft body cutting using projective dynamics. Different constraint types and cutting methods will be implemented using Eigen for matrix computations and libigl for visualization and user interaction.

Constraint types

• positional
• edge length
• deformation gradient
• strain limiting

Dependencies

• C++17 compiler
• libigl

libigl is included in the project using CMake's FetchContent and pulls in Eigen, glfw, Dear ImGui and TetGen with it.
