This work introduces a new modeling/simulation pipeline for handling topological discontinuities as they appear in fracturing, tearing or cracking phenomena. This pipeline combines, in a cascade (1) physics-based particle modeling, which enables a wide variety of temporal phenomena, including physics state changes; (2) explicit topological modeling, which makes it possible to manage a wide variety of shape-independent topologies and robust topological transformations; and, in between, free, non predetermined association, enabling topological transformations all along the animation under control of the point-based movement produced by the physics-based model.
