Advanced GPU Techniques for Dynamic Remeshing and Self-Collision Handling in Real-Time Cloth Tearing by Jong-Hyun Kim, Jung Lee

“…Most existing approaches perform remeshing through low-resolution simulations to maintain real-time performance or use pre-divided patterns, which cannot be considered dynamic remeshing and result in low-quality torn surface patterns. In this study, we propose a GPU-optimized dynamic remeshing algorithm that enables real-time processing of high-resolution cloth tearing. …”
