Abstract
Powdered materials, such as sand and flour, are quite common in nature, whose properties always range from granular particles to smog materials under the air friction while throwing. This paper presents a hybrid method that tightly couples APIC solver with density field to accomplish the transformation of continuous powdered materials varying among granular particles, smog, powders and their natural mixtures. In our method, a part of the granular particles will be transformed to dust smog while interacting with air and represented by density field, then, as velocity decreases the density-based dust will deposit to powder particles. We construct a unified framework to imitate the mutual transformation process for the powdered materials of different scales, which greatly enhance the details of particle-based materials modeling. We have conducted extensive experiments to verify the performance of our model, and get satisfactory results in terms of stability, efficiency and visual authenticity as expected.
