Designed for mathematical calculations of mechanical models. Allows real-time investigation of two-dimensional systems of masses and springs taking into account friction and nonlinearity, as well as taking into account electrical, gravitational forces and object collisions.
Opportunities
- Adding and editing objects in real time (implemented)
- Manipulations with objects (partially implemented)
- Display of velocity and force vectors (implemented)
- Dependency graphs of system variables and energies
- Specifying user functions of objects parameters
- Not real time calculations
- Observing “heat maps” of physical fields (partially implemented)
- Physical fields isolines rendering
- Calculations of centers of mass (partially implemented)
- Saving models to file/load from file (partially implemented)
- Loading models from the server
Who will be interested

- Creators of control algorithms
- Designers of motorized manipulators
Physical engine
- Models of point masses and (non)linear springs with damping
- Electrostatic and gravitational interactions
- Lennard-Jones, Morse interaction (partially implemented)
