flip exploding around collision bound

Recommended Posts

Hi, I am summoning all of you flip gods! In the images you can see the flip explodes upwards for no apparent reason, this seems to happen along the boundary of the collision object. I am using guided ocean layer setup. The collisions otherwise behave correctly.

I have tried high res sim, low res sim, changing grid resolution, changing collision geometry (submarine model, simple scaled sphere), deforming collision geometry, object transform collision geometry, zeroing out collisiovel field, high resolution collision vdb, low resolution vdb, playing around with depth of the guided ocean layer, different amount of substeps(both flip solver and autodop), reseeding settings, changing integrator types in the flip solver and probably more...

Quite frankly I am at my wits end and I wonder if anyone has ever seen this kind of a problem and if there is a solution to it. I would also like to avoid making the boundary layer exceedingly deep, as this would most likely kill all the detail. I have attached a simplified hip file where this problem occurs.

Thank you

In case anyone ever stumbles upon this thread and wonders what caused these problems, I think I solved it.

Inside the gas guiding volume dop, there are 2 gas linear combination nodes for guidingsurface and guidingcollision fields. These nodes should make sure that collision fields are properly accounted for in the guiding surface field, however if your collision field is set up in static object as a "Volume Sample", it produces very stepped guiding surface in the domain of the collisions.

The solution to this is to either use "Ray Intersect" on the static object and so calculate the collision field every frame, or disable the 2 gas linear combination nodes, and do the same operation in sops - using vdb combine->sdf difference, and then bring it over with a sop solver.

This produces a nice smooth guiding surface and so no weird artifacts happen.

Hi Mate

so did this actually fix your issue?, im having the same problem as you with you in the  hip file you share but can't get it work, this you make this one work???
