Naiad is a dynamics solver and a simulation framework capable of producing animations of dynamic bodies including:
liquids
- large and small bodies of water
- breaking waves
- splashes and foam
- accurate viscous liquids featuring buckling, coiling and bending motion
- high degree of creative control while preserving realistic fluid motion
gases
- fire
- smoke
- explosions
full two-way coupling of rigid-bodies to fluids.
Other features include its Time-Step Graph, which allows the artist to express what happens at each time-step of the simulation, and the interface to describe the graph.
