Hi ! first, excuse my english, I'm just a poor french student... and we are so bad in languages here... anyway.. I'm trying to make a little program which could calculate the motion (and some other little things) of n bodies linked with gravitationnal interaction. (my final aim will be to...

you don't even have to know the rules of poker to help me out.. this should be very simple math but i just can't figure it out... 10 players (including me) are dealt 2 cards each. Of 169 possible starting hands, i only want to play 16 of the best hands (the remaining 153 hands i would...

Hi, Could some body please explain me how to identfy the size of simulation box in cosmological n-body simulation with the physical scales in the universe. For example if I am using 128 grid points along one direction in a Particle Mesh code and total number of particles are 128*128*1228. Now...

I've just got my final year project assigned. It has to do with a numerical simulation of a Ram Accelerator device. Well, apart of having doubts, which I will post just here proximately, I would want to know some website to learn more about that type of device. Apart of Google sites...

Hi everyone! Despite I have not too much knowledge of ODE's I'm trying to implement a more or less general 3D physics simulator. By now, the simulator (only kinematics and simple rotations of a body rigid, at the moment) works with euler integrator but I'd like to move to some more...

First, hi. This is my first post, and after careful perusing of the forum I *think* this post is in the correct place. Feel free to move it around if not, apologies. The meat of my questions. I'm a High School student that would like to simulate atoms on the computer. I've been getting...

Hello, This sounds like a silly idea, but I am trying to simulate all forces of in the universe on my computer, putting in the correct physics equations for each force, one by one. I was already able to simulate the force of gravity with the following formulas/equations: G = 6.674205043E-11...

I am creating a circuit building simulation using multimedia software 'Flash'. Basically the user is presented with a circuit board onto which they can drag components such as batteries, resistors, bulbs, ammeters, voltmeters, switches, and of course lengths of wire. I have been reading...

I was wondering if yall could help me out with creating some formulas to use in an artillery simulation. I'm barly in HS and this sort of thing blows me out of the water. Theres 3 parts you need, I have the first mostly figured out. You are given the latitude and longitude of both your...

http://www.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/~martins/orbit/orbit.html One of the best programs for anyone interested in orbital mechanics of space flight or anyone who just wants to simulate a shuttle or Apollo flight with a joystick. :smile: I found this a couple of days ago and have downloaded about...

Hey there. I'm currently studying to become a mechanical engineer, and in one of my projects I'm in need of some program that can simulate aerodynamics of different shapes. I only expect some kind of simple pogram, nothing fancy, but I don't know anything about this kind of program, so I...

Convex Lens How about this simulation program How about this ?>

Hello everyone, I am trying my best to do this simulation on Matlab to show the expancion of Magnetic field lines out of a coil. Now, finding the amplitude and direction of the field at a given place is pretty simple, the trick is to produce those tidy lines we all see in books, i gather they...

The Simulation Argument Are You Living In a Computer Simulation? Nick Bostrom, PhD Philosophy Faculty, Oxford University This website features scholarly investigations into the idea that you might currently be literally living in a computer simulation, running on a computer built by...

Hi. I'm designing a computer game at the moment (it's still in the theory stages right now, since I can't get much done until I've got a working engine for it) -- I make 'ammateur' games as a personal hobby in my free time. However, my latest attempt is a bit more mathematically ambitious than...

I try to program a 3d-physic simulation, with bouncy collisions, friction, etc. and i have a problems with splitting forces at an inclined plane. i know that F_n = F_g * sin(\alpha) and F_p = F_g * cos(\alpha) F_n ... normal force F_p ... parallel force F_g ... gravity force...
