Description:
We present the fastest physics solver for games and interactive applications. Based on the new Augmented Vertex Block Descent method, it can simulate complex interactions of millions of objects in real time. It is numerically stable and computationally efficient, and it can properly handle frictional contacts, stacking, and articulated chains.
