stopa Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) Hi, I would like to create an animation of blooming flower. I've created the basic setup, but I have a problem with intersecting petals. Does anyone have an idea how to get rid of those intersections without deleting whole petals? Thanks in advance for all the answers. flowertest.hiplc Edited September 7, 2020 by stopa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duveil Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Hi search for Design x Stimulation - Lukas Vojir & Alexa Sirbu - Houdini HIVE Worldwide video then go to 28 min of that video. Lukas has some wonderful techniques. Basically you need to model the opened shape and use bend deformation to close it and put a vellum solver on it. That fixes most of the intersections. Then reverse the animation and apply another vellum solver . Edited September 9, 2020 by duveil 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

van Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Hi Stopa, did you get this working? I added Vellum constraints like in the video duveil linked, but in the Vellum Solver the petals don't follow the Bend animation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
