Water Splash in Bowl

cults3d

This is a water simulation entirely created within Blender (including the bowl as well). To optimize it for printer-friendly output, modifications were made while retaining most of the original simulation's essence. There are three distinct models available: one to print in two separate colors and another that combines both parts into a single piece. Due to its intricate design featuring small components and overhanging elements, printing this model requires patience and precision with layers set at 0.15 mm for optimal results. In this simulation, no supports were used, yet it was successfully completed without any issues encountered. The models are characterized by their high poly count. I produced the water simulation within Blender: I initiated by creating a sphere and programming fluid flow emanating from it as it fell into the bowl (pre-filled with some liquid) at an initial velocity. Next, I applied the simulation to convert it into a mesh, removed the fluid flow, reworked the resulting mesh, and sculpted specific areas where necessary. Finally, I utilized boolean operations to merge both models for printing in two colors, as well as combining them into one seamless piece.
