Constraint-based Simulation

Constraint-Based Simulation is a computational modeling approach within kinematic simulation that enforces prescribed geometric or dynamic constraints to restrict the motion of articulated systems, distinguishing it from unconstrained or force-driven simulation methods by prioritizing constraint satisfaction as a fundamental determinant of system behavior.
