Contacts and Constraints is a comprehensive exploration of Physics Simulation that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 7 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 3's discussion of Game Engines is particularly strong, with clear examples and practical applications. The diagrams and illustrations throughout help clarify complex ideas, and the chapter summaries are excellent for review. My only minor critique is that the conclusion seemed rushed, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Contacts and Constraints, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains Contact Resolution made everything click for me. I've been struggling with Contact Resolution for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about Physics Simulation - it reminded me so much of my own experience with Computational Mechanics. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

Discussion about Numerical Stability in Contacts and Constraints
Posted by David Davis on March 12, 2026
Can someone help me understand Contact Resolution from chapter 8? I'm struggling to see how it connects to Collision Detection.

To add to this, I found similar examples which seems to support your point.
