Liquid boundaries for implicit incompressible SPH

Jens Cornelis, Markus Ihmsen, Andreas Peer, Matthias Teschner We propose a novel unified particle representation for fluids and solid boundaries in Implicit Incompressible SPH (IISPH). In contrast to existing particle representations, the proposed concept does not require a separate processing … Continue reading

A Practical Method for High-Resolution Embedded Liquid Surfaces

Ryan Goldade, Christopher Batty, Chris Wojtan Combining high-resolution level set surface tracking with lower resolution physics is an inexpensive method for achieving highly detailed liquid animations. Unfortunately, the inherent resolution mismatch introduces several types of disturbing visual artifacts. We identify … Continue reading

Solving the Fluid Pressure Poisson Equation Using Multigrid—Evaluation and Improvements

Christian Dick, Marcus Rogowsky, Rüdiger Westermann In many numerical simulations of fluids governed by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, the pressure Poisson equation needs to be solved to enforce mass conservation. Multigrid solvers show excellent convergence in simple scenarios, yet they … Continue reading
