There are computer programs that can simulate the behavior of fluids, such as water, milk, honey and many others. However, creating detailed simulations takes a really long time, up to days even for a few seconds of video footage. Adaptive algorithms are a class of techniques that try to adapt at the problem that we have at hand. This adaptive method focuses computational resources to regions which are visible and have many fine details, and coarsens the simulation quality in regions that are not visible (or interesting). The resulting algorithm is much more efficient at simulating small scale turbulent details.
