"Here is a dragon taking a bath" Literally blasts dragon with water "What could be better than a massage after a bath?" *shoots the dragon and kills it* "Lets have more dragons join the party' *drops dragons into pins, giving them extreme pain and killing them*
I saw lots of MPM simulations for soft jelly-like objects, would MPM be suitable for simulating the fracture of a hard object (crystal) with a high Young's modulus? (Maybe a much smaller time step is needed?) Thank you!
Its funny I was talking to a friend a several years ago about an idea I had just like this, he was so stubborn and said it would never be possible. Im very glad it is possible haha, some people have a imagination deficit. good job with this!
did quantic computers could have enough computing power to lower the mpm to the atomic scale and adding all atomic properties to their reactions? assuming that it could be possible, we will have the opportunity the simulate again a real-close new virtual world
not without quantum computers. in 12 - 15 years maybe - we just demonstrated quantum supremacy this year ( 2019 ) but it takes more development to make atom scale simulations even of very small amounts of matter.
Just guessing but could be because with each calculation or update there is error. With more steps per unit of time there is a greater cumulative error per unit of time. If a variable is supposed to be static or slowly changing then it could get less precise over a given period of time because the results would drift away quicker due to more steps generating errors. - Think of the typical example for this being a very tall tower of rigid body simulated boxes stacked one on top of other. If it is not simulated then it stays as it is - correct. If it simulated then due to minor rounding errors such tower would crumble and collapse - wrong result. If the tower was updated every 10 frames then the tower would stay intact for 10 times longer - framewise. It would probably crumble in the same number of simulation steps, unless the steps are more precise or have different parameters (greater damping or whatnot).
AsyncMPM uses a smaller timestep in fast changing areas (e.g. vibrations) and a larger timestep in areas that don't change a lot. That is why vibrations are preserved better using AsyncMPM.
Just tried to install Taichi under Ubuntu 16.04 by following instructions on this page: taichi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#. After installation, it shows the warning: Qt initialization failed. While i can import the PyQt5 in the python3 environment, do you have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?
