  1. 1. Comparison between Smoothed-Particle Hydrodynamics and Position Based Dynamics for real-time water simulation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Rasmus Andersson; Erica Tjernell; [2023]
    Keywords : Fluid simulation; Lagrangian fluid simulation; Smoothed-Particle Hydronamics; Position Based Dynamics; Vätskesimulering; Lagransk vätskesimulering; Smoothed-Particle Hydronamics; Position Based Dynamics;

    Abstract : Two of the methods common in video game fluid simulation are SmoothedParticle Hydrodynamics (SPH), and Position Based Dynamics (PBD). They are both Lagrangian methods of fluid simulation. SPH has been used for many years in offline simulations and has truthful visuals, but is not as stable as the newer method PBD when using larger timesteps. READ MORE
