Simulation Projects

Explore 9 interactive simulation projects — simulations, applications, and visualizations.

Pendulum & Spring-Mass SHM Lab

RK4-integrated nonlinear pendulum and damped spring-mass oscillator with live phase-space and energy plots. Watch the small-angle approximation break down in real time.

Standing Waves & Resonance

Drive a string at one end and hunt for the harmonic series. Live node/antinode envelope and a harmonic-scan indicator show resonance as it happens.

Collisions Lab

1D rail and 2D sandbox collisions built on Matter.js. Adjust mass and restitution to see momentum conservation and kinetic energy loss live.

Projectile Motion & Drag

2D projectile motion with quadratic air drag, compared live against the ideal vacuum trajectory. See exactly how much range and height drag costs you.
