Soft Material Modeling

Modeling soft materials is challenging. Collaborating with MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab, we presented a fully differentiable simulation platform for thin-shell object manipulation tasks (e.g., papers) and a differentiable simulation environment for vision-based tactile sensors (e.g., GelSight) for learning robotic skills.
