Abstract(in English) This paper proposes an interactive model for animating complex-shaped articulated elastic objects. To each of a series of articulated bones, an elastic primitive is attached so that real-time animations based on the Boundary Element Method can be achieved. Inverse-kinematics is applied for computing the bones' transformations, and the lengths of the bones are changed so that the articulated elastic objects behave like one elastic object without any articulation. By enclosing the above-mentioned elastic object with an outer frame that consists of elastic primitives, multiple bones can be controlled simultaneously. Experimental results demonstrate interactive operations as well as realistic animations.
