 I work at DCIEM (a defence/civil reaserach facility in Toronto). We are
working on a ship simulator, and are currently modelling the ocean.
 I was wondering if anybody knows a way to animate waves in performer. I
have an article (SIGGRAPH, 1986, vol. 20, no. 4) which explains the
dynamics and explains (well, sort of) how to do it using ray tracing, but
that's way to slow. I've tried moving blue cylinders/spheres/etc. through
a blue sheet, but it just doesn't look realistic.

 Thanks,

        Peter Plachta
