contents Video generative models have made remarkable progress, yet they often yield visual artifacts that violate grounding in physical dynamics. Recent works such as PhysGen3D tackle single image-to-3D physics through mesh reconstruction and Physically-Based Rendering, but challenges remain in modeling fluid dynamics, multi-object interactions and photorealism. This work introduces 3DPhysVideo, a novel training-free pipeline that generates physically realistic videos from a single image. We repurpose an off-the-shelf video model for two stages. First, we use it as a novel view synthesizer to reconstruct complete 360-degree 3D scene geometry by guiding the image-to-video (I2V) flow model with rendered point clouds. Second, after applying physics solvers to this geometry, the physically simulated point cloud is used to guide the same I2V flow model to synthesize final, high-quality videos. Consistency-Guided Flow SDE, which decomposes the predicted velocity of the I2V flow model into denoising and consistency bias, enforces consistency to the conditional inputs, allowing us to effectively repurpose the model for both 3D reconstruction and simulation-guided video generation. In the diverse experiments including multi-objects, and fluid interaction scenes, our method successfully bridges the gap from single-images to physically plausible videos, while remaining efficient to run on a single consumer GPU. It outperforms state-of-the-art baselines on GPT-based scores, VideoPhy benchmark and human evaluation.
