Abstract:
In this sketch we present a novel GPU-accelerated interactive SPH particle simulation and rendering algorithm. The basic idea is to reformulate the SPH equations such that each particle distributes its physical properties to, instead of accumulating the contributions from its neighbors. This is achieved by a 3D particle splatting technique implementing the fixed-radius neighbor search. Moreover, we present an efficient visualization based on rendering the surface particles as metaballs on the GPU.
