How to have multiple soft bodies in a single object?
Final:
Overview:
For the Soft Body object I've used two Vertex Groups. One for Goal and second one for Springs. I've assigned different weights for selected parts. You can also draw weights in ...

For each soft body object:
Add Soft Body,

How to get the physics engine to wraps a string around the moving part of a motor constraint?
The simplest way to simulate rope or string is using a Soft Body simulation on a row of vertices and add thickness with Skin and Subdivision Surface modifiers. You can use the Soft Body Goal to pin ...

Cloth collision with an object
For rigid body and cloth/soft body simulations there are a number of things you need to be careful of.
For the Rigid Body simulation you need to ensure you select the correct 'Shape' for the Rigid ...

What causes this weird collision?
There is a difference between the shape of the mesh, and the shape used for collision detection. Often a mesh is too complex to allow for real-time collision detection.
What you "see" is the convex ...

How to make an (open) object behave like rubber when penetrated by another
You could use cloth physics for the deformation part.
Pin the corners or edges of the rubber object so it keeps its shape by adding it to a Vertex Group. Let the physics do the rest.

Piping cream through a piping tip
To expand on my comment, and if you only need the moment the cream passes through the tip, an easy way to fake it would be to pass a cylinder through a lattice.
Start with a cylinder with a few edge ...

Squeezing shape by another one
This is not at all a "physically accurate" simulation by any stretch, but it may be able to approximate the desired effect with a bunch of modifier trickery using a Vertex Weight Proximity and a Cast ...

Soft body and collision don't work
The most likely problems are either due to flipped normals, fast moving soft body (moving so fast as to jump through the plane before collision can be detected), or inappropriate Collision settings.

How to make a cloth simulation reach its resting neutral shape faster after it is disrupted?
The quickest, easiest way to get cloth to retain its resting shape more is to take advantage of pinning. You're already using pinning on 2 of your verts, at 1.0 weight, but pinning can be used at ...
