A large-scale fluid simulation tracking 100,000 particles as they settle through turbulent water has identified a previously ...
In A Nutshell Scientists discovered a previously unknown form of mixing that occurs when large groups of dense particles ...
What governs the speed at which raindrops fall, sediment settles in river estuaries, and matter is ejected during a supernova? These questions circle around one, deceitfully simple factor: the rate at ...
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 ...
After years of creating highly specialized software, researchers used supercomputer clusters to finally solve the "100,000-body problem.
Engineers at Northwestern University have unveiled the behavior of single microscopic particles when they unite. The findings reveal an enigmatic, perfectly synchronized dance. The research team ...
Video games appeal to our desire to explore and interact with our environment, and adding real-world phenomena-such as fluid motion-allows game developers to create immersive and fun virtual worlds.
Fluid simulation can augment game mechanics and enhance the aesthetics and realism of video games. Video games demand high performance on a low budget but not great accuracy. By low budget, I mean ...
