For interpolation, I use the quadratic B-spline presented here: Analysis and Reduction of Quadrature Errors in the Material Point Method. Instead of integrating the density over time (which is what most of the MPM papers do), I do a density summation every frame. Material Parameters Some of these parameters are hard to explain in one or two sentences (and a couple I made up) so I'll also link you to their corresponding Wikipedia pages.

Mushrooms - P. Cubensis - Transcending Time - 45587 Mushrooms - P. Cubensis Citation: No one. BACKGROUND: The summer after my freshman year I bought a mushroom kit from a local head shop with the intention of taking it home and doing mushrooms all summer long. Mindset: Fastforward to mid-summer. Setting: Late night/Early morning 1 am, My room. My Trip: This is written in the chronological order that I experienced. 1am - I had originally decided to do 7 grams, a dosage a college friend recommended. 115am - I turn on the black light in my room shut the closet door and turn of the lights. 120am - Nothing yet. 145am - I have reached a plateau and am quite sure that this is the peak of my trip. Flurries of pictures begin to flash in front of me, pictures I haven't seen since childhood. At that point the room disappeared and only the distant light was visible. 2am - 15 minutes have passed and I have alredy re-experienced my birth. 215am - I had gone insane. 315am - I get bored of looking at the future me.

competition Honorable Mention 2014 Skyscraper Competition Henry Smith, Adam Woodward, Paul Attkins United Kingdom A cylindrical matrix of super tall structure centered on an electromagnetic vertical accelerator to eliminate the hydrocarbon dependency of aircraft during takeoff. Commercial air travel is celebrating its centenary in 2014 and over the last 100 years aviation has made an unprecedented impact on the way people can experience an interconnected and relatively open world. The future of Aviation is anticipated to rely on energy dense hydrocarbon fuels to provide the power required to make flight possible. An electromagnetic vertical accelerator, utilizing the technological principles developed at CERN’s LHC and maglev train propulsion, provides a method for commercial aircraft to be accelerated to cruising speed using renewable electrical energy sources from ground based infrastructure. The concept is essentially a helical version of the classic urban grid environment.
