Creating win in Maya

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a school project, creating an interactive statue that draws energy from the win, using a technology called Piezo Electrics, and turns it into light. We need to build it, but before we do that, we would like to have a 3D model of it actually working.

I have very limited experience working with dynamics, i know about rigid bodies but not much more. I have come to understand that you can create win using fields but i cant find any proper tutorials on how to make it affect polygonal objects. The help files in Maya is a bit confusing, and are mostly about how to affect particles.

I need some advice on how to get started or maybe a link to a tutorial.
