Hello all,

I am trying to model a metal ball falling into water and splashing, however the ball doesn't ever come into contact with the water, it travels straight through it. I have used general contact which works for impacts into deformable objects. The water is defined as a eulerian material. I have attached the CAE file of my model.

I would be extremely grateful for any help on this matter.

Thanks in advance
