In this paper, we propose a new approach to numerical smoke simulation for computer
graphics applications. The method proposed here exploits physics unique to smoke in order …

We present a general method for modeling and animating liquids. The system is specifically
designed for computer animation and handles viscous liquids as they move in a 3D …

Physically based deformable models have been widely embraced by the Computer
Graphics community. Many problems outlined in a previous survey by Gibson and Mirtich …

We present a method for simulating water and smoke on an unrestricted octree data
structure exploiting mesh refinement techniques to capture the small scale visual detail. We …

We present an algorithm for the finite element simulation of elastoplastic solids which is
capable of robustly and efficiently handling arbitrarily large deformation. In fact, our model …

We present a physically based method for modeling and animating fire. Our method is
suitable for both smooth (laminar) and turbulent flames, and it can be used to animate the …

In this paper, we describe a method for realistically animating ductile fracture in common
solid materials such as plastics and metals. The effects that characterize ductile fracture …

Vorticity confinement reintroduces the small scale detail lost when using efficient semi-
Lagrangian schemes for simulating smoke and fire. However, it only amplifies the existing …

We present the Rigid Fluid method, a technique for animating the interplay between rigid
bodies and viscous incompressible fluid with free surfaces. We use distributed Lagrange …

The particle level set method has proven successful for the simulation of two separate
regions (such as water and air, or fuel and products). In this paper, we propose a novel …
