Abstract
A deformable body is embossed using a stamp as a function of a pressure distribution. The pressure distribution is obtained by running a deformation model determined based on convolving a contact pressure distribution with a mechanical response of a surface topography of the deformable body and convolving the pressure distribution with a point load response of the stamp.
