Vbd Demos Fixing by AnkaChan · Pull Request #1740 · newton-physics/newton

AnkaChan · 2026-02-23T20:28:39Z

Fixed those issues:

example_poker_cards_stacking.py (Incorrect behavior with the following example: example_poker_cards_stacking.py #1622): Updated the ground plane's friction so the cards will stop.
example_rolling_cloth.py (Other Issues on VBD Deformable Related Examples #1739): removed the arguments that could break the simulation.

I did not see any failure in example_cloth_hanging.py using XPBD solver. As to example_softbody_dropping_to_cloth.py, it's okay to let it fall to the ground.

example_cloth_franka.py is more complicated I will make an improvement in a separate PR.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Ground plane contact properties are now configurable, allowing users to specify contact stiffness, damping, and friction for more precise simulation control.
Refactor
- Simplified the cloth rolling example's public interface by reducing constructor parameters; simulation settings are now internally configured for consistent default behavior.

…h custom stiffness, damping, and friction settings

…and removing arguments that could break the simulation if not tuned carefully

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Two example files are modified to adjust their public API: the cloth example removes constructor parameters for cloth configuration, now hardcoding them internally, while the multiphysics example introduces a configurable ground plane setup using ShapeConfig instead of default initialization.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Example Files Updates `newton/examples/cloth/example_rolling_cloth.py`, `newton/examples/multiphysics/example_poker_cards_stacking.py`	The cloth example simplifies the `Example.__init__` signature by removing public cloth and rotation parameters (cloth_length, cloth_nu, cloth_thickness, angular_speed, spin_duration), now hardcoding them internally. The multiphysics example refactors ground plane initialization to accept a configurable `ShapeConfig` object specifying contact properties (stiffness, damping, friction) instead of using default parameters.
