A Survey on Smoke Simulation Methods

Abstract:

This paper presented a survey on the development of smoke simulation in computer animation, with a detail introduction to the classification of the works as well as different kinds of methods employed in the field. The methods applied mainly include the particle system method, the mathematic and physics-based method and the texture based method. Each method had their advantages and shortcomings, application scopes and result characteristics. We discussed the tendency of this direction.
