Changing Levels of Description in a Fluid Flow Simulation

We described here our perception of complex systems, of how we feel the different layers of description are an important part of a correct complex system simulation. We described a rough models categorization between rules based and law based, of how these categories handled the levels of descriptions or scales. We then described our fluid flow simulation, which combines different fineness of grain in a mixed approach of these categories. This simulation is built keeping in mind an ulterior use inside a more general aquatic ecosystem.
