A wave breaks on the shore, sending up splashes of water and spray and creating eddies in the surrounding air. However, the digital simulation of this everyday natural occurrence is anything but ...

Storm surges or collapsing dams—authentic simulations of water flows are not only important for special effects in disaster movies, but could also help to protect coastal regions. For more realistic ...

Ever since NVIDIA acquired AGEIA and assimilated their PhysX IP, there has been an outcry for more triple-A game titles that fully utilize the technology. Currently there are only a handful of popular ...

Researchers in the United States have used an exascale supercomputer to perform the largest fluid dynamics simulation ever. It surpassed one quadrillion degrees of freedom in a single computational ...

Fluid-Implicit-Particle or FLIP is a method for simulating particle interactions in fluid dynamics, commonly used in visual effects for its speed. [Nick] adapted this technique into an impressive FLIP ...

Fluid simulations are a key tool in fields from aerospace to motorsports and even civil engineering. They can be three-dimensional and complicated and often run on supercomputer clusters bigger than ...

The gaming industry is arguably one of the most important and innovative sectors of today’s technology industry. Driven by increasingly popular mobile gaming, it is now more valuable than the film and ...

Simulating the physics of water has always been tricky, and game engines sometimes still have to use dodgy mechanics to make it feel real. But the above demonstration of this new fluid simulation ...
