Thank you for your responses,
But I forgot to mention that it’s only a 2D environment.
I don’t need the layers to behave as a paper kind material,on the contrary, there are rather rigid.
That’s why Dan’s gravity expression was a great start but I can’t make the layers interact with each other and they can only rebound straight up, they can’t rebound on the corners and bounce on a diagonal direction.

Thank you Yikes,

You’re definitely right, it’s what I was afraid to hear…
I tried keyframing and no matter how much efforts I put into that it never
ends up looking natural.

The trick to get the expression working is to add a variable for the bottom “corners” of the layer that would allow it to rebound on different angles, not just on the vertical axis.
Then the stabilization will happen automatically in the same way it happens in the regular expression that Dan wrote.

I just thought that somebody must have run into the same kind of problem.
