I wonder if this could also be used to model rope or fabric physics. Rope and fabric behave kind of like water sometimes.

Is this a rendered image or a simulated one?

@enzyme Good point. Yes, mechanical waves travel through solids as well as fluids. Numerical methods for solid waves (i.e., for simulating elastodynamics) look a bit different from those for fluids, but there are of course many similarities and analogies as well.

@sponge I love that you now have to ask that question. :-). (In this case, it's a video... I think!)
