Description: Master thesis:nhttps://drive.google.com/open?id=0B16UYreWAOhYbThRUDFuWW5JYU0nnThe semi- implicit material point method used to simulate snow in Frozen. The algorithm was coded from scratch in Houdini using VEX and Python as a part of my master thesis. A small extension allows for fluid simulations as well. As a fluid simulator, this version of the material point method is probably inferior to Houdini's own FLIP solver but it does allow for some cool interaction of solids and fluids :)
