producing fluid sound effects automatically from 3d fluid simulations, and will appear at Siggraph:

The central focus of this work is the automatic simplification of highly detailed polygonal surface models into faithful approximations containing fewer polygons.

there is also a link to an implementation you can try out as well.

iterative parallax mapping have better visual quality over steep parallax mapping:

here is paper if someone is interested
