When dealing with real-time simulation, radiative thermal computations have always been, and are still a challenge. Notably, computing view factors is very compute-intensive when the input 3D model is complex and exhibits many holes and occlusions. The task is even more difficult on complex geometries generated through topological optimization...

Radiative heat transfer or light transport are primarily governed by geometric view factors between surface elements. For general surfaces, calculating accurate geometric view factors requires solving integrals via quadrature methods. For complex scenes with many objects and obstacles such calculations are compute-intensive, preventing...
