What is it about?
This cool new numerical solver adds next-gen physics into virtual muscle and cloth simulations! We use a novel per-node framework to increase the fidelity of (X)PBD while maintaining the speed. Come and check out the cool muscle simulation! We advance speed by 6X as compared to traditional methods.

Why is it important?
The novel physics solver offers a unified solution for quasistatic or dynamics simulations of cloth and solid. It has the long-sought property that the simple iteration count parameters acts as a knob between realtime simulation/reasonable quality to offline simulation/movie-level quality. It is easy to implement and parallelize. It boasts more robustness and better convergence rates than the other existing numerical methods.
