Abstract: | Real-time interaction between a designer and a deformable mock-up in Virtual Reality environments is a promising paradigm
to evaluate design feasibilities. In this paper we focus on the haptic-aided deformation verification process of industrial
deformable parts by combining small deformations and relatively large rigid-body motions. First, concerning the modelling
process of small deformations, we propose a two-stage method extended from the linear modal analysis. In this two-stage method,
modal deformation sub-spaces are pre-computed in an off-line phase, and real-time deformations are quickly reproduced by superimposing
the responses of certain modes which are selected depending on interaction requirements. Based on this two-stage method, we
propose a mesh analysis method to enrich the off-line pre-computations corresponding to different anticipated interaction
scenarios. Furthermore, we apply a real-time division scheme which divides the deformation response process into two separate
modules, so that stable haptic interactions are guaranteed. Second, concerning the purpose of global deformation verifications,
we combine relatively large rigid-body motions resulting from the integration of classical motion equations and small deformations
resulting from the aforementioned two-stage method. We have implemented the two-stage method to model small deformations and
rigid-body motions. Real-time experiments are carried out by coupling a single haptic device with a simulation framework and
experimental results validate the deformation accuracy on one hand, and demonstrate a good and stable haptic interaction experience
on the other. |
