A textbook by Donald H. House and John C. Keyser. The book establishes a framework for simulating dynamic systems by applying the laws of classical mechanics to computer-generated imagery. It distinguishes between primary animation, which is artist-driven character movement, and secondary animation, which uses physics to automate the motion of environmental elements like hair, water, and cloth. Key technical concepts covered include numerical integration techniques, such as Euler and Verlet inte
