The algorithm is able to robustly handle huge scenes of complex closed and also non-closed objects defined as implicit surfaces and thus it is ideally suited for extending classical, wellknown fluid simulation models. A subset of thermodynamic rules based on a static grid is used. Other approaches use buoyant force and other equations based on motion, e. g.
