What sort of math is involved in a particle (fluid) simulator?

Navier Strokes equations. It's unbelieveable how accurate they are. Almost like the physics are simulated.

He talks about the hypothesis which states something along the lines that our universe is simulated and runs on a digital computer.

There are a lot of DCT compression artifacts in there... did you take an MPEG and make it into a gif? That looks so bad.

I can't believe that nobody has mentioned the Lattice Boltzmann model. It took me forever to write one of those programs and actually understand what was going on. I still haven't found a really good resource for learning this, but this comes fairly close as a good starting point: https://www.ndsu.edu/fileadmin/physics.ndsu.edu/Wagner/LBbook.pdf
