It is well accepted that soft tissue deformation a combination of linear and nonlinear response. During small displacements, tissues deform linearly while during large show deformation. This paper presents new approach for modelling deformation, from the standpoint Mass Spring Method (MSM). The proposed MSM model developed using conical spring methodology which allow to have different stiffness...

There are many ways of synthesizing sound on a computer. The method that we consider, called a mass-spring system, synthesizes sound by simulating the vibrations of a network of interconnected masses, springs and dampers. Numerical methods are required to approximate the differential equation of a mass-spring system. The standard numerical method used in implementing mass-spring systems for use...

This paper presents a new method for real-time modelling soft tissue deformation. It improves the traditional mass-spring model with conical springs to deal with nonlinear mechanical behaviours of soft tissues. A conical spring model is developed to predict soft tissue deformation with reference to deformation patterns. The model parameters are formulated according to tissue deformation pattern...

In this paper, we propose an e cient technique for the animation of exible thin objects. Massspring model was employed to represent the exible objects. Many techniques have used the mass-spring model to generate plausible animation of soft objects. The easiest approach to animation with mass-spring model is explicit Euler method, but the explicit Euler method has serious disadvantage that it su...
