Main Document

Relativistic Constrained Motion Model

written by Kostas Papamichalis

This simulation shows the constrained motion of a particle (bead) along a circular curve. The study is accomplished within two different theoretical context: a) the Einstein General Theory of Relativity and b) the Newtonian Mechanics. T
