报告题目：Fluid-Solid Coupling in Kinetic Two-Phase Flow Simulation

报告摘要：

Real-life flows exhibit complex and visually appealing behaviors such as bubbling, splashing, glugging and wetting that simulation techniques in graphics have attempted to capture for years. While early approaches were not capable of reproducing multiphase flow phenomena due to their excessive numerical viscosity and low accuracy, kinetic solvers based on the lattice Boltzmann method have recently demonstrated the ability to simulate water-air interaction at high Reynolds numbers in a massively-parallel fashion. However, robust and accurate handling of fluid-solid coupling has remained elusive: be it for CG or CFD solvers, as soon as the motion of immersed objects is too fast or too sudden, pressures near boundaries and interfacial forces exhibit spurious oscillations leading to blowups. Built upon a phase-field and velocity-distribution based lattice-Boltzmann solver for multiphase flows, this paper spells out a series of numerical improvements in momentum exchange, interfacial forces, and two-way coupling to drastically reduce these typical artifacts, thus significantly expanding the types of fluid-solid coupling that we can efficiently simulate. We highlight the numerical benefits of our solver through various challenging simulation results, including comparisons to previous work and real footage.

讲者简介：

Wei Li is really interested in physical simulation. Currently, He is a senior research scientist at Tencent Shanghai, LightSpeed Studios and he also hires research interns at Tencent Games all year round. Previously, He was a Postdoc at Inria Saclay, supervised by Prof. Mathieu Desbrun. He obtained his doctorate from the School of Information Science & Technology of ShanghaiTech University in China, supervised by Prof. Xiaopei Liu, and majoring in computer graphics, with a particular focus on fluid simulations. Differing from traditional fluid simulation, his research is multi-disciplinary, covering many aspects of computer science and computational physics, as well as using artificial intelligence in physical simulations. During his PhD study, he closely collaborated with Prof. Mathieu Desbrun from Caltech and Prof. Changxi Zheng from Columbia University for fluid simulation. He received his BS degree in computer science from Northwestern Polytechnical University, China, supervised by Prof. Yong Xia.

报告题目：Fluid Cohomology

报告摘要：

The vorticity-streamfunction formulation for incompressible inviscid fluids is the basis for many fluid simulation methods in computer graphics, including vortex methods, streamfunction solvers, spectral methods, and Monte Carlo methods. We point out that current setups in the vorticity-streamfunction formulation are insufficient at simulating fluids on general non-simply-connected domains. This issue is critical in practice, as obstacles, periodic boundaries, and nonzero genus can all make the fluid domain multiply connected. These scenarios introduce nontrivial cohomology components to the flow in the form of harmonic fields. The dynamics of these harmonic fields have been previously overlooked. In this paper, we derive the missing equations of motion for the fluid cohomology components. We elucidate the physical laws associated with the new equations, and show their importance in reproducing physically correct behaviors of fluid flows on domains with general topology.
