Abstract
A strain based dynamic technique, for rendering special effects, includes simulation as a function of a Green-St. Venant strain tensor constraint. The behavior of a soft body may be controlled independent of a mesh structure by assigning different stiffness values to each constraint of the Green-St. Venant strain tensor.
