rochre Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) I need to create an artisitst representation of metal addidive manufacturing. basicallly a laser liquifing small metal pellets with a laser. My thought was to use grains and have them melt into a viscous flip liquid. However I can't thing who to transition from one to the other...if that even makes sense. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Edited May 2, 2021 by rochre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underscoreus Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Have a look at the viscosity settings/tab in the flip solver. Set a viscosity attribute and then just animate the value overtime where the laser hits the pellets. Added a quick and lazy example below, hope it can be useful even if it is quick and dirty. flip_changing_viscocity.hiplc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
