Foundations of Physically Based Modeling and Animation

商品描述

Physics forms the basis for many of the motions and behaviors seen in both the real world and in the virtual worlds of animated films, visual effects, and computer games. By describing the underlying physical principles and then creating simulations based on these principles, these computer-generated worlds are brought to life. Physically Based Modeling and Animation goes behind the scenes of computer animation and details the mathematical and algorithmic foundations that are used to determine the behavior underlying the movement of virtual objects and materials. Dr. Donald House and Dr. John Keyser offer an approachable, hands-on view of the equations and programming that form the foundations of this field. They guide readers from the beginnings of modeling and simulation to more advanced techniques, enabling them to master what they need to know in order to understand and create their own animations

商品描述(中文翻譯)

物理學是許多在現實世界以及動畫電影、視覺特效和電腦遊戲的虛擬世界中所見運動和行為的基礎。通過描述基本的物理原則，然後基於這些原則創建模擬，這些電腦生成的世界得以生動呈現。《基於物理的建模與動畫》深入探討了電腦動畫的幕後，詳細說明了用於確定虛擬物體和材料運動行為的數學和演算法基礎。Donald House博士和John Keyser博士提供了一個易於接近的實作視角，介紹了構成這一領域基礎的方程式和程式設計。他們引導讀者從建模和模擬的基礎開始，逐步進入更高級的技術，使讀者能夠掌握理解和創建自己動畫所需的知識。

- 強調該領域的基本概念，並不依賴於任何特定的軟體包、語言或API。
- 以高度整合的方式發展數學、物理、數值方法和軟體設計的概念，增強動機和理解。
- 隨著書籍的進展，逐步發展材料，從非常基本的技術開始，並在此基礎上引入日益複雜的主題。
- 通過將基本的物理和數學技術直接與電腦動畫中的應用聯繫起來，激發主題的興趣。

作者簡介

Donald H. House is Professor and Chair of the Division of Visual Computing in the School of Computing at Clemson University, Clemson, South Carolina, USA. He received his Ph.D. in Computer and Information Sciences from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, his M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Rensselaer, and his B.S. in Mathematics from Union College. His early research was in cloth simulation, and physically based animation. More recently his focus has been on cognitive and perceptual optimization of visualizations under uncertainty.
