! style="width:500px" | In this model a fluid is initially held in a block configuration. At the first time step the fluid is allowed to flow out due to the force of gravity. As if flows outward it crashes into a rectangular block and interacts with the boundary walls. The color of each fluid particle corresponds to its velocity magnitude (m/s) at each time step.

In this model an oscillation piston creates waves within a 250 cm x 50 cm x 50 cm tank. A solid block of 900 kg/m^3 density floats on one side of the tank and capsizes under the influence of the standing waves.The color of each fluid particle corresponds to its velocity magnitude (m/s) at each time step.
In this view the motion of the particles at the boundary of the model iceberg are shown. The color of each solid particle corresponds to its acceleration magnitude (m/s^2) at each time step.
