Naiad Test: Bunny Example

I started using Naiad since the end of 2010 in a production support capacity.

Naiad is a highly optimized fluid simulation package that can pump out massive amount of particles/volume datasets in a relatively short amount of time. It's also worthy to mentioned that Side Effect's Houdini is the best companion to wrangle the sheer quantity of data created with Naiad.

Here is one of the test run I did with it.

This is the primary/base simulation that defines the overall shape and movement of the fluid.

This is a secondary "splash" pass that resulted in literally millions of particles in just a few hours total.
