Bachelor and Master Theses

We permanently offer topics for bachelor and master thesis projects in all areas of our research field and in related areas. Currently, the research of our group covers the following topics: interactive simulation of rigid bodies and deformable solids, fluid simulation, cutting and fracturing, medical simulation, massively parallel computation on GPUs, game physics, collision detection and real-time visualization. Each thesis topic is usually specified in cooperation with one of our research assistants and/or Prof. Bender considering the student's individual interests and his/her previous knowledge as well as the current research topics of the Computer Animation group. In order to guarantee a successful completion of the thesis, we usually expect our student to have

Good knowledge and practical experience in C/C++ and object-oriented programming
Basic knowledge of numerics, algorithms and data-structures
