Creating computer generated animations and visual effects (VFX) of fluids is a challenging task. The goal of this project is to design novel approaches that ease the creation of fluid simulations for VFX. Four main challenges will be tackled: the simulation of viscous fluids, the gain in geometric details of free surface fluids, the texturing […]

Research on fluid simulation is ongoing at the Multimedia Lab of ÉTS, currently focusing on SPH liquid simulation. Fluid simulation requires lengthy computation times and should allow some artistic control. Parallel computation approaches are promising for reducing the computation times. Examples of such approaches include the works of Zhang et al. [Y Zhang, B Solenthaler, […]
