Think about the last time you were at a lake, river, or the ocean. Remember the ripples of the water, the waves crashing against the rocks, the wake following a boat, the sun reflecting off the crests ...

Microsoft Flight Simulator might have made its debut in 2020, but it's already received a tonne of free updates. Including the recent addition of helicopters and gliders. In our big interview with ...

Sarah has been an editor and contributor for GameRant since 2015. She kicked off her video game journey after meeting her first Chocobo, she never looked back. After years of playing them, she decided ...

When designers select a method for simulating water and waves, they have to choose either fast computation or realistic effects; state-of-the-art methods are only able to optimize one or the other.

A wave breaks on the shore, sending up splashes of water and spray and creating eddies in the surrounding air. However, the digital simulation of this everyday natural occurrence is anything but ...

You may not give much thought to it when splashing around in the bath or going for a swim - but realistically simulating water is an incredibly difficult task for computers. A new simulation from ...

Simulating the complex ebbs and flows of liquid in real-time is not easy, but this jaw-dropping new demonstration from PhysX shows we’ll eventually get there. This new system is called Position Based ...

Hydraulic engineering specialists have unveiled the latest—and most realistic—generation tsunami simulator. The device, which is installed in HR Wallingford's Fast Flow Facility, is being part-funded ...

Computer scientists have introduced a novel representation of waves that improves computational efficiency by at least an order of magnitude. Based on principles of theoretical physics, their method ...
