Real-Time Sand Dune Simulation

We present a novel real-time method for simulating aeolian sand transport and dune propagation. Our is GPU-based extension of the Desertscapes Simulation propagation model to additionally capture echo dunes obstacle interaction. validate our by comparing it against an existing study evolution in wind tunnel environment. Additionally, we demonstrate significantly improved performance via comparison existing, CPU-based method. Lastly, published exploring bidirectional environment driven offline, cellular autonoma based conclude that presented simple helpful tool users multiple domains who wish physically plausible desertscape real time.
