ABSTRACT:
A method for simulating objects includes receiving a target shape associated with a simulated object. A difference is determined between the target shape and a measured shape associated with the simulated object. One or more forces are generated to act on the simulated object to reduce the difference between the target shape and the measured shape. The target shape may be updated when the difference between the target shape and the measured shape exceeds a predetermined tolerance. Updating the target shape may include reducing the target shape to move the target shape closer to the measured shape.
