2D metaballs with marching squares and linear interpolation
I struggle do understand how linear interpolation works in the marching square rendering algorithm context.
I created simple example in GDScript (Godot) of random floating metaballs to demonstrate ...

Rendering Fluid Simulations?
I've read about Lagrangian and Eulerian fluid simulations and here's what I take from their methods:
Lagrangian - Simulating fluid particles by calculating displacement for each particle
Eulerian - ...

Hodge Decomposition in fluid simulations
I have just started implementing a fluid simulator based on the navier stokes equation.
I am following Jos Stam's paper to do so.
In this paper, it says that the velocity field must be mass conserving....

Fluid sim: CPU vs. GPU
I have very recently started looking into real-time fluid simulation. Idea is to make a game that would use 3D fluid simulation as a core gameplay mechanic.
Looking around the web, I found this ...

Code runs differently on different hardware
I wrote a 2D fluid-solver in OpenGL (code here) some time back.
While it runs flawlessly on my onboard Intel GPU,
the simulation very quickly "blows-up" when same code is run using nvidia card :
