What's wrong with that statement? FEM is a good way to handle deformables, but it isn't the only way, so it a fine statement.

- Y_Y 11mo agoIt's used as a claim of physical accuracy, but it's not related to that.
- cutlilacs 11mo agoSorry if I'm misunderstanding, but isn't FEM used in physics engines because it is an good approximation for the underlying physics? For example, I believe the Drake Physics engine uses FEM to model deformable materials relating to vehicle crashes at Toyota
- Y_Y 11mo agoFEM is just a numerical technique for solving some kinds of differential equations. It doesn't aitomatically make you accurate or not, just like any other stable solver.
