2018 SS Fluid Simulation Lab Repo

ToDo

Clean and restructure code.

Description

This is the repo for the fluid simulation lab in 2018 SS at RWTH, made by Chu-I Chao and Neng Qian. It has been tested on Linux(Ubuntu 16.04) and Mac OS. It includes PBF and WCSPH solvers, and a visualization program based on Merely3D and imgui. It applys Marching cubes to reconstruct fluid surface.

Building

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
(make clean)
make

(Optional) Compile in Release mode to get the best performance

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

Running the code

We will have 3 executables after the code is built.

./save_simulation
    output the serialized simulation data
./save_fluid_mesh
    take the output from above as input and outputs the serialized mesh data
./visualizer
    visualize the serialized simulation data only, OR visualize the serialized simulation and mesh data at the same time. Inputting multiple sets of data is available.

add the flag below for more details

-h, --help

Test programs

Two test programs will be also built.

./test_marching_cube
    test the marching cube on some basic geometrical primitives

./kernel_test
    unit tests for kernel functions

Selective test scenarios

To reproduce the results we've mentioned in the final report, we suggest some terminal commands here. Here we assume that the program is built successfully and you are in the ./build directory.

2-cube collision

Using WCSPH
    ./save_simulation -n 5 -m 4 -f 5000 -o <your_simulation_data_file> -c 0 -t 0.001 -z 10
    ./visualizer -s <your_simulation_data_file> -x 0
Using PBF
    ./save_simulation -n 5 -m 4 -f 500 -o <your_simulation_data_file> -c 1 -t 0.01 -z 1
    ./visualizer -s <your_simulation_data_file> -x 0

Dropping a chunk of water inside a pillar (choose smaller n for shorter waiting time, n=5 for example)

Using WCSPH

    ./visualizer -s <your_simulation_data_file> -x 0
Using PBF
    ./save_simulation -n 10 -m 8 -f 300 -o <your_simulation_data_file> -c 1 -t 0.01 -z 1
