Abstract
Provided is a method and apparatus for rendering a target fluid that include defining level-set information of fluid particles configuring a modeled target fluid. The level-set information comprises a shortest distance from a surface of the target fluid to the fluid particles. The method and apparatus are include discarding internal particles of the target fluid from the modeled target fluid based on the level-set information of the fluid particles, and calculating thickness information of the target fluid, from which the internal particles are discarded, based on depth information on the fluid particles. The target fluid is rendered based on the thickness information of the target fluid.
