WARNING: The movies illustrate the gradient-descent evolution algorithm used by the Evolver, and are not designed to model actual physics. The Evolver does not do turbulence, viscosity, inertia, and other bulk fluid physics. The motions shown are suggestive of physical motion, at best. The closest physical model would be the surface itself propelled through a viscous medium by capillary force, similar to grain growth in an annealing crystalline material.
These animations were made with HTML5 and WebGL, so they need a modern browser, namely Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Internet Explorer 11, or Edge. Chrome and Opera are preferred over Firefox, since they uses only half the memory that Firefox does for these animations. If the animation has brief halts intermittently, it is probably a sign that your browser is running tight on memory, and is pausing for memory garbage collection.
