Interactive Simulation of Progressive Cutting Model

Force feedback coupled with visual display allows people to interact intuitively with complex virtual environment. The paper presents a framework for the interactive simulation of surgical cuts. Object deformation is based on mass-spring system and the improved progressive cutting approach is introduced. The paper proposed using BP neural network to calculate the part of haptic force rendering
