SPH fluids for viscous jet buckling

We present a novel meshfree technique for animating free surface viscous liquids with jet buckling effects, such as coiling and folding. Our technique is based on Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) fluids and allows more realistic and complex viscous behaviors than the preceding SPH frameworks in computer animation literature. The viscous liquid is modeled by a non-Newtonian fluid flow and the variable viscosity under shear stress is achieved using a viscosity model known as Cross model. The proposed technique is efficient and stable, and our framework can animate scenarios with high resolution of SPH particles in which the simulation speed is significantly accelerated by using Computer Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) computing platform. This work also includes several examples that demonstrate the ability of our technique
