Designed for artists that want to understand how fluid solvers work, senior mathematician Jeff Lait walks you through the process of creating both grid and particle-based fluid solvers from scratch. Focus is placed on the visual effect of the various microsolvers, not the mathematics, in the hopes of demystifying what is often treated as an impenetrable black box.

    Watching this 12 years after it was made .... this should still be on the watch list of anyone that wants to understand POPs, Pyro and FLIP

    Thanks so much for your videos Jeff .... they turn Houdini Magic into Houdini Science for us mere mortals :D

    Love it, I've been looking for a deep dive on micro solvers, even if it's a bit out of date haha. If I get the opportunity I would love to create a more up to date boiled down version of this tutorial.
