Title
Particle-based ice freezing simulation
Abstract
As an interesting topic in computer graphics, visual simulation of ice has been widely studied. However, there have been very few researches on flowing water freezing with phase transition. In this paper, a physical particle-based ice freezing model is presented. By solving heat conduction and air bubble diffusion based on fluid dynamics, our method allows the simulation of freezing phenomena that occur in flowing water. With the advanced heat transfer model, fluid freezing can be simulated in arbitrary cooling direction and speed. During the dynamic freezing process, distance smoothed diffusion of air bubbles are calculated to produce realistic freezing result. Dynamic volume expansion of ice is easily captured by changing particle density. Efficient and realistic solidification process is simulated with phase-based viscosity and rigid-shape matching constraints to particles. Realistic animation of ice freezing phenomenon is achieved naturally with our method.
