The Cheerios effect is named after the observation that breakfast cereals floating in milk often clamp together. This effect is driven by buoyancy and applies to various objects floating in water. Lighter objects, such as bubbles, elevate the surface attracting other bubbles as they "rise" in the elevation. Heavier objects lower the surface so other objects "fall" towards them. Simulation done in Aphros, visualized in ParaView, and described in article.
