To report exactly from his paper what he wrote in terms of displacement increment : delta_u = delta_u(real_vel) + gradVel*pos*dt; where : delta_u(real_vel) = vel*dt; (vel is from the real particle velocity, hence = a*dt) So the increment of velocity I guess would be given by : delta_v = vel + gradVel*pos; That is why I was writing in my previous post : vel+=vel+gradVel*pos; (I was only missing the vel given by a*dt, but I thought it was implicit) Is this wrong ? IICR, you were writing the same thing in a previous post in this thread, like: if (homotheticCellResize>1) state->vel+=scene->cell->velGrad*state->vel*dt; and now you say that equation vel+=velGrad*vel*dt (1) is wrong. Does not look exactly the same you wrote ? cheers. Chiara
