Textured Liquids based on the Marker Level Set

In this work we propose a new Eulerian method for handling dynamics of liquids and their surface textures. Our approach is based on a new method for interface advection we term the Marker Level Set (MLS). The MLS method uses surface markers and a level set for tracking the surface of the liquid, achieving more efficient and accurate results than popular methods like the Particle Level Set method (PLS). Another novelty is that the surface markers allow the MLS to handle surface texture advection as well, a very rare capability in the world of Eulerian simulation of liquids. We present several simulations of liquids and their texture maps evolving dynamically.
