In order to achieve the simulation of elaborate stroke trajectories in Chinese calligraphy, this paper puts forward the innovative researching on writing momentum in the field of non-photorealistic rendering in the first time. Through the analysis of using pen in Chinese calligraphy, the writing momentum is divided into three parts: the center, the side and the back of writing brush by the judgment of the angle of brush holder. We design an algorithm for dynamic outputting writing rendering based on brush model. According to monitoring parameters such as the direction, position and normalized pressure of using pen, we calculate parameters like the footprint direction, the shape, size and nib bending after writing. The algorithm can also judge the dynamic writing trend of stroke trajectories, even automatic generate stroke trajectories by the algorithm forecasted. We achieve a more delicate rendering of Chinese calligraphy to enhance the user's operating results. And we finish the unique writing effect separated the Chinese calligraphy form other general writing results, which greatly enhances the Chinese calligraphy simulation. So that people who lack of writing skills can easily draw a beautiful charm font.
