Liquid sloshing in tanker

[garyjforeman]

I've seen examples of containers affecting the physics of a liquid but not the other way round.

Is it possible to simulate liquid sloshing around in a tanker vehicle and have it affect the physics of the vehicle.


Thanks in advance,

Hi,

This happens automatically, if the container (or any object the fluid collides with) is a rigidbody. The density of the fluid and the mass of the rigidbody will determine how collisions affect each one of them.

For instance, in the first part of this video the mill is a rigidbody so it is affected by the fluid:

thanks for the response - very much appreciated.
