DESCRIPTION:
This course introduces students to physically based modeling for computer graphics and related fields, and summarizes current research issues. Efficient numerical methods for simulating a host of visually interesting physical phenomena will be covered, and discussed in the context of both interactive and offline simulation. The course should be appropriate for graduate students in all areas and for advanced undergraduates.

PREREQUISITES:
The prerequisite will be 15-462 Computer Graphics I (or equivalent undergraduate course) or permission of the instructor. Students should have prior exposure to numerical computation.

TEXT:
There will be no single text. Selected articles, book chapters, and course notes will be made available online.

METHOD OF EVALUATION:
Grading will be based on a set of assignments, a final class project and a presentation (see chart below). Collaboration and group final projects are encouraged but must be coordinated through the instructor.

Assignments	30%
Project	60%
Presentation	10%

ASSIGNMENT LATE POLICY:
You have 5 late days that you may use for any of the assignments during the quarter but further extensions require an excellent excuse.

ASSIGNMENT HAND-IN:
Assignments are submitted electronically in your usernamed directory off /afs/cs.cmu.edu/academic/class/15863-s03. After logging in to your andrew account, you will need to run the command "cklog cs.cmu.edu" to access your directory.

TOPICS TO BE COVERED:
Depending on time and class interest we will cover topics from:

Overview of physical simulation in graphics and interactive applications
Dynamical system modeling
Numerical integration of ODEs
Rigid body dynamics
Structured deformable objects
Constraints and nonsmooth contact
Unstructured transport phenomena
Collision detection
Multiresolution geometric and physical modeling
Rendering issues: graphics, haptics and acoustics
Simulation on programmable graphics hardware
Data-driven approaches to simulation
Reality based measurement & inverse problems
Nondynamical applications of physically based modeling in graphics

SOFTWARE
Feel free to code assignments in your preferred programming language. However all assignments must be accompanied by a video showing system performance. Below are some suggested software libraries.

Basic numerical libraries

GSL - The GNU Scientific Library (C)
MTL - Matrix Template Library (C++ with sparse matrix support)
ATLAS - A portable self-optimising BLAS library with CBLAS interface
