Particles Part 03 - The Principle Of Particle Simulation
Added 2019-05-23 07:06:58 +0000 UTCAfter two episodes with practical examples it's time for some theory. In this episode I'll show you how a POP solver does force and velocity integration to simulate the particles. Equipped with this knowledge we build a custom POP solver with wrangles and show that it creates the exactly same results as the inbuilt POP solver. Although I know that theory lessons probably aren't the most populart ones I hope you enjoy this one anyways. As the setups will get more complicated later in the course this fundamental knowledge will come in very handy later on.
Attached you'll find the demo file. Inspect it on your own to see how Euler's method approximates particle movement. The wrangle based POP solver ist attached, too.

I love it! Thanks for the explanation!

2021-08-25 20:33:49 +0000 UTCI was genuinely shocked at the end to see both particle streams identical. Mind blown from this one. Connecting the theory to the little demo at the end was a great learning exercise. Well done!

2019-06-07 04:31:39 +0000 UTCLove the theory and deep βunder the hoodβ tutorials! I feel like those do the most to level up my houdini skills rather than just a specific trick or technique

2019-05-25 21:19:31 +0000 UTCNow I'm looking at it and thinking about kinda completely unrelated thing - it is possible to create recurrent artificial neural network using only basic Houdini nodes, isn't it?

2019-05-23 15:25:07 +0000 UTCThank you for the tutorial Manuel! Having those curves right next to the math formulas was a really cool way of learning about it.
