bifrost Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) Hey guys! Started some RnD recently on melting plastic with shrinking due to intense heat. Do you guys have any idea how to approach this effect? I have been trying with FEM but denting works but not melting. However I am not sure how flip fluids will shine in this area? Didn't get time to test it out. Any help on this is gonna be amazing. Cheers, b Edited August 24, 2017 by bifrost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eetu Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Here's another example with variable viscosity flip, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trzanko Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 For the shrinking, I'd try advecting the particles along the gradient of the surface volume towards the center before surfacing. This step could be done on the particle updates input of the flip solver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
