Solids, pastes, cables and cloth
Six solvers beyond liquids and sand
Soft solids, pastes, cables, bonded grains and cloth share the scene with liquids, sand and snow.
Finite-element soft bodies
Rubber, silicone and gel as hyperelastic solids, with stresses, supports and moving loads.
RubberSiliconeGelStress
Slime, paste, clay and dough
Elastoviscoplastic materials that yield, flow and hold their shape. Adhesion lets tools pull them apart.
SlimePasteClayDoughAdhesion
Elastic rods
Cables, wires and ropes that stretch, bend and twist, with contact against themselves and solids. Shown: 500 strands twisted into a yarn.
BendTwistSelf-contact
Cohesive and bonded grains
Per-object cohesion and breakable bonds: grains clump, crumble and fracture.
CohesionBondsFracture
Cloth with hinge bending
Dihedral bending, sub-step contact with solids and per-solid Coulomb friction.
Hinge bendingSub-step contactFriction
Exact rigid-body contact
Contact from the exact mesh surface, with corner and edge points: sub-millimetre contact gaps.

Everything in Doriflow Advanced
Every phase, two-way coupled
Liquids and whitewater
Splashes, waves, floods and pipe flow, with viscosity and surface tension. Foam, spray and bubbles are generated from the flow.
Floating bodies
Rigid bodies float, tilt, sink and ride the flow, and the flow responds to every body in it.
Sand, snow, mud and jelly
Continuum materials that pile, yield, slump and flow, from jelly and snow to honey and lava, coupled with water in the same scene.
Granular flow
Discrete grains that stack, pour and discharge from silos, with liquids and solids around them.
Cloth, cables and soft solids
Cloth, elastic rods and finite-element soft bodies in the same scene as liquids, grains and rigid bodies.
Animated colliders
Keyframed obstacles and deforming characters (Mixamo rigs) push through liquids, grains and cloth.
Inlets and outlets
Emit and drain any phase: liquid jets, grain feeds, continuous material streams.
One-click workflow
Compute All runs simulation, surface mesh and whitewater in one pass. Any run resumes from its last checkpoint. Fourteen preset scenes to start from.

Engineering validation
Measured against theory
Each validation study runs a classic experiment in Doriflow and compares the measured response with theory and published data: natural periods, damping, deviations, energy per cycle.

Who it is for
Built for artists, engineers and researchers
VFX and motion design
Liquids, whitewater, soft bodies and cloth with direct controls, meshed and rendered with Cycles or EEVEE.
Engineers and researchers
Test large, coupled scenes on your own GPU before committing HPC time: flooding, drainage, coastal defence, sloshing, granular discharge.
Product and process visualisation
Food, packaging and production lines in one run: dough sheeting, bucket elevators, wash cycles.
