This talk presents development of a procedural-animation approach, with a profile-curve-based wave deformer and an APIC simulation approach to create art-directed and physically accurate crashing waves in Disney's "Moana" (2016).

This talk presents two complementary techniques to speed up material-point-method-based simulations: a special GPU implementation that can run simulations up to five times faster, and a significantly reduced computational workload while adding artistic control with a novel particle-activation scheme.

A novel set of algorithms and techniques enables art-directable water effects with high surface detail by means of localized guided liquid simulations. The method has been integrated with a spatially adaptive FLIP liquid solver in Autodesk Maya's procedural Bifrost framework.
