text: We propose a method to enhance the visual detail of a water surface simulation.
Our method works as a post-processing step which takes a simulation as input and
increases its apparent resolution by simulating many detailed Lagrangian water
waves on top of it. We extend linear water wave theory to work in non-planar domains
which deform over time, and we discretize the theory using Lagrangian wave packets
attached to spline curves. The method is numerically stable and trivially parallelizable,
and it produces high frequency ripples with dispersive wave-like behaviors customized
to the underlying fluid simulation.

text: Multiple Importance Sampling (MIS) is a key technique for achieving robustness
of Monte Carlo estimators in computer graphics and other fields. We derive optimal
weighting functions for MIS that provably minimize the variance of an MIS estimator,
given a set of sampling techniques. We show that the resulting variance reduction
over the balance heuristic can be higher than predicted by the variance bounds
derived by Veach and Guibas, who assumed only non-negative weights in their proof.
We theoretically analyze the variance of the optimal MIS weights and show the
relation to the variance of the balance heuristic. Furthermore, we establish a
connection between the new weighting functions and control variates as previously
applied to mixture sampling. We apply the new optimal weights to integration problems
in light transport and show that they allow for new design considerations when
choosing the appropriate sampling techniques for a given integration problem.

text: Multiple importance sampling (MIS) has become an indispensable tool in Monte
Carlo rendering, widely accepted as a near-optimal solution for combining different
sampling techniques. But an MIS combination, using the common balance or power
heuristics, often results in an overly defensive estimator, leading to high variance.
We show that by generalizing the MIS framework, variance can be substantially
reduced. Specifically, we optimize one of the combined sampling techniques so
as to decrease the overall variance of the resulting MIS estimator. We apply the
approach to the computation of direct illumination due to an HDR environment map
and to the computation of global illumination using a path guiding algorithm.
The implementation can be as simple as subtracting a constant value from the tabulated
sampling density done entirely in a preprocessing step. This produces a consistent
noise reduction in all our tests with no negative influence on run time, no artifacts
or bias, and no failure cases.

text: We present a thermodynamically based approach to the design of models for
viscoelastic fluids with stress diffusion effect. In particular, we show how to
add a stress diffusion term to some standard viscoelastic rate-type models (Giesekus,
FENE-P, Johnson–Segalman, Phan-Thien–Tanner and Bautista–Manero–Puig) so that
the resulting models with the added stress diffusion term are thermodynamically
consistent in the sense that they obey the first and the second law of thermodynamics.
We point out the potential applications of the provided thermodynamical background
in the study of flows of fluids described by the proposed models.

text: "The current state of the art in real-time two-dimensional water wave simulation
requires developers to choose between efficient Fourier-based methods, which lack
interactions with moving obstacles, and finite-difference or finite element methods,
which handle environmental interactions but are significantly more expensive.
This paper attempts to bridge this long-standing gap between complexity and performance,
by proposing a new wave simulation method that can faithfully simulate wave interactions
with moving obstacles in real time while simultaneously preserving minute details
and accommodating very large simulation domains.\r\n\r\nPrevious methods for simulating
2D water waves directly compute the change in height of the water surface, a strategy
which imposes limitations based on the CFL condition (fast moving waves require
small time steps) and Nyquist's limit (small wave details require closely-spaced
simulation variables). This paper proposes a novel wavelet transformation that
discretizes the liquid motion in terms of amplitude-like functions that vary over
space, frequency, and direction, effectively generalizing Fourier-based methods
to handle local interactions. Because these new variables change much more slowly
over space than the original water height function, our change of variables drastically
reduces the limitations of the CFL condition and Nyquist limit, allowing us to
simulate highly detailed water waves at very large visual resolutions. Our discretization
is amenable to fast summation and easy to parallelize. We also present basic extensions
like pre-computed wave paths and two-way solid fluid coupling. Finally, we argue
that our discretization provides a convenient set of variables for artistic manipulation,
which we illustrate with a novel wave-painting interface."
