Original Abstract Submitted

systems and methods herein address momentum conservation in physics engines using one or more processing units to simulate an articulated body based at least on an adjustment to a velocity that is associated with a root link of the articulated body, and using at least a change in momentum determined from one or more external forces separately from a change in momentum determined from one or more internal forces to conserve momentum within the system.
