Comparisons of implicit and explicit time integration methods in finite element analysis for linear elastic material and quasi-brittle material in dynamic problems

In finite element analysis, nonlinear time-history analysis is a realistic and accurate analysis type for dynamic or seismic analysis due to its solutions contain wealthy data and complete response time-history. The most commonly used method, probably the only practical procedure, in nonlinear time-history analysis is the direct time integration...

Adaptive Multi-view Screen-space Ambient Obscurance

Screen-space ambient obscurance techniques provide a cheap, yet visually pleasing approximation to the expensive global illumination effect. However, view-dependent artifacts frequently occur due to the limited scene information available in a single view, which forms the basis of these solutions. Recent work aims at suppressing artifacts with...
