Fluid Dynamics

Navier-Stokes (Fluid Dynamics) PS3 Simulation.

40x40 Navier-Stokes Grid Simulating flow of fluid (White for high pressure, bluish grey for low pressure) and Ink (blue).
2048 Particles (Newtonian Rigid Bodies with Spherical collision using boundary hash IDs).

Programmed in C++ on Playstation3.

"This Thesis will in detail describe Fluid Dynamics, the design, technical challenges and implementation of a possible Real-Time fluid simulation on the PLAYSTATION® 3 console (PS3). Real-Time Fluid simulations require complex calculations that are time consuming. This Thesis shows that the PS3 is a powerful machine that can achieve complex simulations via the Cell architecture where previous hardware found it difficult to achieve."
