Ebb: A DSL for Physical Simulation on CPUs and GPUs

Gilbert Bernstein, Chinmayee Shah, Crystal Lemire, Zachery DeVito, Matthew Fisher, Philip Levis, Pat Hanrahan Designing programming environments for physical simulation is challenging because simulations rely on diverse algorithms and geometric domains. These challenges are compounded when we try to run efficiently on heterogeneous parallel architectures. We present Ebb, a domain-specific language (DSL) for simulation, that […]

Boundary detection in particle-based fluids

Marcos Sandim, Douglas Cedrim, Luis Gustavo Nonato, Paulo Pagliosa, and Afonso Paiva This paper presents a novel method to detect free-surfaces on particle-based volume representation. In contrast to most particle-based free-surface detection methods, which perform the surface identification based on physical and geometrical properties derived from the underlying fluid flow simulation, the proposed approach only […]
