Shape matching is a popular method for simulating deformable objects in real time as it is fast and stable at large time steps. Although shape matching can simulate large elastic deformation and ductile fracturing, until now, they are limited to scenarios with relatively small plastic deformation. In this work, we present a method for simulating deformable solids undergoing large plastic deform...

A model of a rigid-plastic rate-independent polycrystalline aggregate wherein subaggregates are represented as the nodes of a binary tree is proposed. The lowest nodes of the binary tree represent grains. Higher binary tree nodes represent increasingly larger sub-aggregates of grains, culminating with the root of the tree, which represents the entire polycrystalline aggregate. Planar interfaces...

Flexible microelectronics has shown tremendous promise in a broad spectrum of applications, especially those that cannot be addressed by conventional microelectronics in rigid materials and constructions. These unconventional yet important applications range from flexible consumer electronics to conformal sensor arrays and biomedical devices. A recent paradigm shift in implementing flexible ele...
