The family of 2D semiconductors (2DSCs) has grown rapidly since the first isolation graphene. emergence each 2DSC material brings considerable excitement for its unique electrical, optical, and mechanical properties, which are often highly distinct from their 3D counterparts. To date, studies majorly focused on group IV (e.g., graphene, silicene), V phosphorene), or VIB compounds (transition metal dichalcogenides, TMD), have inspired effort in searching novel 2DSCs. Here, electrical...

This paper pushes the performance of cloth simulation, making simulation interactive even for high-resolution garment models while keeping every triangle untangled. The penetration-free guarantee is inspired by interior point method, which converts inequality constraints to barrier potentials. We propose a major overhaul this modality within projective dynamics framework leveraging an adaptive weighting mechanism formulation. approach does not depend on distance between mesh primitives, but...
