text: Previous research on animations of soap bubbles, films, and foams largely
focuses on the motion and geometric shape of the bubble surface. These works neglect
the evolution of the bubble’s thickness, which is normally responsible for visual
phenomena like surface vortices, Newton’s interference patterns, capillary waves,
and deformation-dependent rupturing of films in a foam. In this paper, we model
these natural phenomena by introducing the film thickness as a reduced degree
of freedom in the Navier-Stokes equations and deriving their equations of motion.
We discretize the equations on a nonmanifold triangle mesh surface and couple
it to an existing bubble solver. In doing so, we also introduce an incompressible
fluid solver for 2.5D films and a novel advection algorithm for convecting fields
across non-manifold surface junctions. Our simulations enhance state-of-the-art
bubble solvers with additional effects caused by convection, rippling, draining,
and evaporation of the thin film.

text: 'We present a method for animating yarn-level cloth effects using a thin-shell
solver. We accomplish this through numerical homogenization: we first use a large
number of yarn-level simulations to build a model of the potential energy density
of the cloth, and then use this energy density function to compute forces in a
thin shell simulator. We model several yarn-based materials, including both woven
and knitted fabrics. Our model faithfully reproduces expected effects like the
stiffness of woven fabrics, and the highly deformable nature and anisotropy of
knitted fabrics. Our approach does not require any real-world experiments nor
measurements; because the method is based entirely on simulations, it can generate
entirely new material models quickly, without the need for testing apparatuses
or human intervention. We provide data-driven models of several woven and knitted
fabrics, which can be used for efficient simulation with an off-the-shelf cloth
solver.'

text: "The “procedural” approach to animating ocean waves is the dominant algorithm
for animating larger bodies of water in\r\ninteractive applications as well as
in off-line productions — it provides high visual quality with a low computational
demand. In this paper, we widen the applicability of procedural water wave animation
with an extension that guarantees the satisfaction of boundary conditions imposed
by terrain while still approximating physical wave behavior. In combination with
a particle system that models wave breaking, foam, and spray, this allows us to
naturally model waves interacting with beaches and rocks. Our system is able to
animate waves at large scales at interactive frame rates on a commodity PC."

text: This paper investigates the use of fundamental solutions for animating detailed
linear water surface waves. We first propose an analytical solution for efficiently
animating circular ripples in closed form. We then show how to adapt the method
of fundamental solutions (MFS) to create ambient waves interacting with complex
obstacles. Subsequently, we present a novel wavelet-based discretization which
outperforms the state of the art MFS approach for simulating time-varying water
surface waves with moving obstacles. Our results feature high-resolution spatial
details, interactions with complex boundaries, and large open ocean domains. Our
method compares favorably with previous work as well as known analytical solutions.
We also present comparisons between our method and real world examples.

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.
