Monolith: A Monolithic Pressure-Viscosity-Contact Solver for Strong Two-Way Rigid-Rigid Rigid-Fluid Coupling

Tetsuya Takahashi, Christopher Batty We propose Monolith, a monolithic pressure-viscosity-contact solver for more accurately, robustly, and efficiently simulating non-trivial two-way interactions of rigid bodies with inviscid, viscous, or non-Newtonian liquids. Our solver simultaneously handles incompressibility and (optionally) implicit viscosity integration … Continue reading

Effective Time Step Restrictions for Explicit MPM Simulation

Yunxin Sun, Tamar Shinar, Craig Schroeder Time steps for explicit MPM simulation in computer graphics are often selected by trial and error due to the challenges in automatically selecting stable time step sizes. Our time integration scheme uses time step … Continue reading
