Model predictive control for robust art-directable fluids
Tuur Stuyck, Philip Dutré · 2016
Physics-based animation has become an important tool in computer graphics and is essential in recreating realistic looking natural phenomena. Researchers have been looking for tools to control passive simulations that allow artists to easily modify the simulation to best suit the artistic requirements. However, fluid motion is very hard to predict and it is very difficult, if not impossible, to achieve specific behavior just by altering the global variables. Active control of the simulation will be necessary to achieve this goal.
