Locking-free Simulation of Isometric Thin Plates

To efficiently simulate very thin, inextensible materials like cloth or paper, it is tempting to replace force-based thin-plate dynamics with hard isometry constraints. Unfortunately, naive formulations of the constraints induce membrane locking---artificial stiffening of bending modes due to the inability of discrete kinematics to reproduce exact isometries. We propose a simple set of meshless isometry constraints, based on moving-least-squares averaging of the strain tensor, which do not lock, and which can be easily incorporated into standard constrained Lagrangian dynamics integration.
