Water animation with disturbance model
Qianhua Chen, Jiansong Deng, Falai Chen · 2002
This paper provides a physically based model to animate water. A disturbance model is proposed to simulate various kinds of waves. We use a powerful solver called the finite volume method to solve the water fluid equation and give various kinds of disturbance to the solutions according to different disturbance sources such as wind and rain droplets. In this way, we can nicely simulate the movement of waves such as superposition and reflection, and thus easily simulate scenes of a raining pool, windy lake, etc.
