Understanding dark matter halo dynamics can be pivotal to unravelling the nature of dark matter particles. Analytical treatment of the multistream flows inside the splashback radius of a collapsed cold dark matter halo using various self-similar approaches already exist. In this work, we adapt the Fillmore and Goldreich self-similar solutions to data from 2D Vlasov-Poisson (ColdICE) simulations of monolithic halos seeded with sin-wave initial conditions. We measure trajectories in position and phase-space, mass and density profiles and compare these to predictions from the self-similar model, with an aim to establish the limits of self-similar behaviour and the factors leading to deviations from it.
