Open 15 Closed 12

Modular FEM mechanics

Refactor the constitutive law FE formulations to allow a fully modular description of the material and the FE integration method.

#21 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Cossera rod plugin

Evolutions brought to the existing Cosserat plugin for SOFA

#15 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
GPU-based collision detection

The current collision pipeline is working but it's old, often too complex for what it does. We would like to optimize and refactor it

#23 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Python API for code generation

This work aims at implementing Python bindings for new materials creating array-based and JIT-optimized versions, and developing an energy-based material API using auto-differentiation

#32 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Pixi-based continuous integration

In the migration towards a CI based on GitHub Actions, PIXI will enable to remove the Windows CI

#20 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Efficient and direct resolution of Lagrangian constraints

Allow for different constraint-solving strategies, discrimination different type of constraints, unify of both the solver and constraint API, implementation of new direct resolution method and improvement of performances

#27 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Differentiable simulation

Differentiability now becomes a state-of-the-art feature. SOFA includes parts with manual derivatives. This project aims at generalizing it in the SOFA engine

#19 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Design of a robotic-dedicated application

Implementation of a new application dedicated to roboticists to help creation of robotic simulations with SOFA

#14 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Investigation of Gaussian Splatting with SOFA

In an effort to improve rendering, this project proposes to further develop the proof-of-concept based on Gaussian Splatting

#31 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Python Template Library (Prefabs)

Provide a simpler way to describe a SOFA simulation using pre-built Python utilities.

#22 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Validation & Verification

To increase its scientific credibility and ensure a better reproducibility, this Validation & Verification project aims at bringing a source of results comparing SOFA with other solutions, whether it consists in analytical, manufactured or other software-based solutions.

#7 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Integration of the method Fast but Accurate

In order to modernize the constraint pipeline of SOFA, implement the Fast and Accurate method

#26 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Integration of new plugins

To bring new features to SOFA, distribute new plugins with SOFA

#30 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Minimal version of SOFA

Build a minimal version of SOFA (including a minimal set of components) in order to ease prototyping with the SOFA core

#29 updated Dec 18, 2025

On track
Refactor object registration

Implement and apply a new registration mechanism

#4 updated Dec 17, 2025
