Believably and realistically fracturing computer generated glass for visual effects has been previously solved through various methods such as algorithmic approaches, utilizing texture maps, or finite element analysis. These solutions can achieve some believable results but often at the cost of one or more of the following: simulation time, preparation time, art directability, consistency with materials science research, or the requirement of creating or utilizing fixed assets or maps. In this thesis I present a novel method that draws from the appropriate literature and focuses on quickly generating accurate fracture patterns. The method takes inputs such as the artist’s animation of an impact and desired object properties, and outputs fra...
