Surface Tension Model Based on Implicit Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics for Fluid Simulation

In order to capture stable and realistic microscopic features of fluid surface, a surface tension and adhesion method based on implicit incompressible SPH (smoothed particle hydrodynamics) is presented in this paper. It gives a steady and fast tension model and can solve the problem of not considering adhesion. Molecular cohesion and surface minimization are considered for surface tension, and adhesion is added to show the microscopic characteristics of the surface. To simulate surface tension and adhesion stably and efficiently, the surface tension and adhesion model is integrated to an implicit incompressible SPH method. The experimental results show that the method can better simulate surface features in a variety of scenarios compared with previous methods and meanwhile ensure stability and efficiency.
