title: Modeling biologic soft tissues for haptic feedback with an hybrid multiresolution method.
abstract: The simulation of realistic surgical procedures requires specialized optimized algorithms for the models of organs and tissues, which should comply both with accuracy of results and run-time computation. This paper provides a numerical method for implementing deformation of soft tissues for haptic feedback that makes use of a hybrid pre-computation scheme.
