About the Book

This book presents techniques for creating fluid-like animations with no required advanced physics and mathematical skills. It describes how to create fluid animations like water, smoke, fire, and explosions through computer code in a fun manner. It includes a historical background of the computation of fluids as well as concepts that drive fluid animations, and also provides computer code that readers can download and run on several platforms to create their own programs using fluid animation.

Table of Contents:
Introduction. Observations, Equations, and Numbers. Euler-Newton Equations or Navier-Stokes Equations. The Early Days of Computational Fluid Dynamics. Kolmogorov and Turbulence. Introduction to Fluid Animation. Intermezzi. A Simple Fluid Solver. The Little Computers Who Can Handle Fluids. The Smart Phones Who Can Handle Fluids. Fluid FX: Version 2.0 of Autodesk Fluid. Show Time! MAYA Fluid Effects. Fluids on Arbitrary Surfaces. Control Freaks! How to Make Fluids Do What We Want. Real Experiments, Computer Experiments, and Validation. Epilogue: Let's Call It Quits.

About the Author :
Jos Stam is a senior research scientist with Autodesk. He was born in the Netherlands and educated in Geneva, Switzerland, where he received dual bachelor degrees in computer science and pure mathematics. In 1989 he moved to Toronto, where he completed his master's and PhD in computer science. His research spans several areas of computer graphics: natural phenomena, physics-based simulation, rendering, and surface modeling, especially subdivision surfaces. He has published papers in all of these areas in journals and at conferences. In 2005 he received the SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics Achievement Award, one of the most prestigious awards in computer graphics. He also won two Technical Achievement Awards from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science and has been featured in Wired magazine.
