Abstract

Many particle simulations today rely on spherical or analytical particle shape descriptions. They find non-spherical, triangulated particle models computationally infeasible due to expensive collision detections. We propose a hybrid collision detection algorithm based upon an iterative solve of a minimisation problem that automatically falls back to a brute-force comparison-based algorithm variant if the problem is ill-posed. Such a hybrid can exploit the vector facilities of modern chips and it is well-prepared for the arising manycore era. Our approach pushes the boundary where non-analytical particle shapes and the aligning of more accurate first principle physics become manageable.
