Deformable-rope physics for heavy-lift simulation: after root-causing why rigid cylinder-and-joint rope chains go unstable under load, I moved to a unified deformable (FEM) rope on PhysX 5 and built a Kit extension to tune stiffness, damping and density in real time. Part of a networked crane heavy-lift platform delivered for an industrial client.
