To tackle the indefini teness issue, we present novel analytic expressions for the eigensystem of a DAB energy Hessian. Our expressions reveal that DAB models typically ha ve positive, negative, and zero eigenvalues, with four of each, respective ly. By using these expressions, we can efficiently project an indefinite D AB energy Hessian as positive semi-definite analytically. To enhance the s tability of DAB models at degenerate geometries, we propose rectifying the ir indefinite geometric stiffness matrix by using orthotropic geometric st iffness matrices with adaptive parameters calculated from our analytic eig ensystem. Among the twelve motion modes of a dihedral element, our resulti ng Hessian for DAB models retains only the desirable bending modes, compar ed to the undesirable altitude-changing modes of the exact Hessian with or iginal geometric stiffness, all modes of the Gauss-Newton approximation wi thout geometric stiffness, and none modes of the projected Hessians with i nappropriate geometric stiffness. Additionally, we suggest adjusting the c ompression stiffness according to the Kirchhoff-Love thin plate theory to avoid over-compression. Our method not only ensures the positive semi-defi niteness but also avoids instability caused by large bending forces at deg enerate geometries. To demonstrate the benefit of our approaches, we show comparisons against existing methods on the simulation of cloth and thin p lates in challenging examples.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Access\n\nSe ssion Chair: Weiwei Xu (State Key Laboratory of CAD&CG, Zhejiang Univerisi ty; State Key Lab of CAD and CG, Zhejiang University) URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=papers_513&sess=sess141 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
