Real-Time Tornado Simulation Using a Multi-Fluid Solver on GPU

This research presents a novel approach for the real-time simulation of tornadoes, utilizing a Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equation framework. We implemented a Multi-Fluid Solver on GPUs to efficiently model the interaction of tornadoes with large objects and dust particle flow dynamics. Our method allows for the automatic generation of diverse tornado scenes based on varying initial parameters, significantly improving realism compared to previous methods. This study also marks the first attempt to simulate tornado-induced damage to surrounding objects.
