A ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid body is a polygonal or NURBS surface converted to an unyielding shape. Unlike conventional surfaces, ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid bodies collide rather than pass through each other during animation. To animate ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid body motion, you use fields, keys, expressions, ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid body constraints, or collisions with particles.
