Opis

This book explains how to use the symbolic differentiation system D* for applications in computer games and engineering simulation. The authors describe how to create procedural 3D geometric models, link them together to form multibody physical systems, and simulate and display their physical behavior in real time. The symbolic differentiation c

Recenzje

Featuring a profusely illustrated text, Symbolic Dynamics and Geometry is an especially recommended addition to professional and academic library reference for Computer Science, Computer Graphics, and Computer Game Development reference collections.
