Among different physical simulation topics, cloth simulation is one of the popular subjects in computer graphics. There are many different studies published on different aspects of cloth simulation, but there are not many studies which are focused on the tearing of cloth. Existing studies related to this topic have only dealt with some aspects of the problem and have not provided general solutions. In this thesis, we provide a generic solution for different aspects of the problem of tearing cloth. Some of the points we focus on in this study include, providing realistic tearing effect, preserving polygonal area consistency and texture integrity after the process of tearing, handling the tear properly for both outer physical impacts or inner manipulations like allowing a user to drag the cloth interactively. The technique proposed in this thesis works with non-uniform cloth structure. It makes it easier to adopt the solution proposed here for many different simulation systems. The processing cost of the technique is quite small, so it is also appropriate for realtime simulation systems.

Data-driven and anisotropic tearing for cloth simulation
Karaöz, Mustafa Mert; İşler, Veysi; Department of Game Technologies (2015)
Cloth simulations improve realism of video games by extending interactivity of virtual environment and characters. Cloth is a heterogeneous material and it has anisotropic features which can increase immersion especially in a tearing scenario. Today, most video games ignore this fact mainly due to its complexity. However, style of the final output is highly valuable for video games and addition of anisotropic tearing can improve output quality. Shape of cloths can change, meaning that relative distance of t...
Modeling student behaviors in a virtual classroom using belief desire intention model
Canbazoğlu, Emre; İşler, Veysi; Department of Modeling and Simulation (2014)
Agent and behavior modeling is one of the most important components of computer games and virtual environments that make these products more realistic and attractive. Agent and behavior modeling can also be used for serious games which is designed for training people in virtual interactive environments instead of real life training with less cost and close effectiveness. Belief-Desire-Intention(BDI) model is one of the software models that is used to model intelligent agents. In this thesis, we used BDI arc...
A study on conceptual modeling in simulation systems : an extended methodology for KAMA
Aysolmaz Bozlu, Banu E; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2007)
Conceptual modeling is considered to be essential in simulation development activities. However, there are only a few research studies on how to develop conceptual models. One of the important and comprehensive approaches is the methodology developed under the leadership of METU Modeling and Simulation Center (MODSIMMER) for Turkish Armed Forces. The project suggests a methodology to develop mission space conceptual models (GUKAM), and provides a Conceptual Model Development Tool for C4ISR M&S activities, w...
Texture mapping by multi-image blending for 3D face models
Bayar, Hakan; Ulusoy, İlkay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
Computer interfaces has changed to 3D graphics environments due to its high number of applications ranging from scientific importance to entertainment. To enhance the realism of the 3D models, an established rendering technique, texture mapping, is used. In computer vision, a way to generate this texture is to combine extracted parts of multiple images of real objects and it is the topic studied in this thesis. While the 3D face model is obtained by using 3D scanner, the texture to cover the model is constr...
Functional mockup unit adaptation for HLA-compliant distributed simulation
Yılmaz, Faruk; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Durak, Umut; Department of Computer Engineering (2014)
Conceptual design of systems require aggregate level simulations of the designed system in its operational setting. Thus, performance of the system and its interactions with the other entities in its environment can be evaluated. The complex and heterogeneous nature of these simulations often requires distributed execution. IEEE 1516 High Level Architecture (HLA) is a widely accepted standard architecture for distributed aggregate level simulations. Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) is a recent standardiza...
