Inflatable in Kangaroo 2

Hi, i cannot find anywhere how to make an inflatable simulation with kangaroo 2.

all examples are only for kangaroo 0.9.

how to make a goal where force is being rotated as mesh is being modified(internal pressure), so it is contantly pointing as normal to mesh. is that possible to do?

Thanks.

Vladimir

I have been looking for answers for this type of inflations as well....

Internal pressure to allow the entire geometry to deform/reform accordingly seems to be tough.

Applying force to a single surface is easy (Cloth simulation basically), but to have an internal relationship that affects the external skin will be hard.

Please !!! Some help from all Kangaroos please!!!

Hi Vladimir. It will be good if you upload a graphic representation that shows what do you have in mind.

I should also like to point out that I am not an expert but I have been collecting lots of definitions related with the subject. Perhaps any of these definitions can give us some good idea.

Regards,

Carlos

Kangaroo2 has the Volume goal which might work for you. I'm not sure if this only works for a closed mesh though. If so you might want to have a look at Dave Stasiuk's custom goal here which works similarly to the Pressure force in Kangaroo1 (i.e. applying a force along the face normals).
