Physically-based simulation modeling is to simulate the real world by using physical laws such as Newton's second law of motion, while other modelings use only geometric Properties. In this paper, we present a real time simulation of stone skipping by using the physically-based modeling. We also describe interaction of a stone on the surface of water, and focus on calculating the path of the stone and the natural phenomena of water The path is decided by velocity of the stone and drag force from the water The motion is recalculated until the stone is immersing into the water surface. Our simulation provides a natural motion of stone skippings in real time. And the motion of stone skippings are generated by give interactive displays on the PC platforms. The techniques presented can easily be extended to simulate other interactive dynamics systems.

We can see interactions between rigid body and fluid every day, anywhere. This kind of rigid body-fluid simulation is one of the most difficult problems in physically-based modeling, mainly due to heavy computations. In this paper, we present a real-time dynamics model for simulating stone skipping, which is a popular rigid body-fluid interaction in the real world. In comparison to the previous works, our improved dynamics model supports the rotation of the stones and also computes frictional forces with respect to the air. We can simulate a realistic result for various user input by using proposed model. Additionally, we present a water surface model to show more realistic ripples interactively. Our methods can be easily adapted to other interactive dynamics systems including 3D game engines.
