Fluid simulation in 2D
Introduction
Water has taken up about 71% of the earth surface, and it plays an important role in people’s lives: we use ships to travel, to catch fishes, to transport goods, etc. However, how can we know that the ship we build would move smoothly in the water and it will be safe for us to stay when encountering a storm on the sea. Now, we need to use a method called fluid simulation to help us.
Fluid simulation is a kind of technique, which uses computer to generate realistic animations of fluids such as water or smoke. It is widely applied in 3D computer games and scientific movies.
