Abstract
Although some of the earliest work in fluid simulation for computer graphics exploited vorticity (e.g. Yaeger et al.'s work on Jupiter for the film 2010 [4]), by and large practical work over the last decade or two has focused on velocity-pressure formulations. This talk looks at why vortex methods are worth coming back to, the troubles that have steered practitioners away from them, and how we might overcome them.
