Zeeman Catastrophe Machine Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
A. Glasmann
Post a comment | Relations
The Zeeman Catastrophe Machine Model shows the rotational motion of wheel that is free to rotate but is connected to two elastics, one which is free to move in the xy-plane, and one…
Dielectric Breakdown Lightning Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
S. Castle
Post a comment | Relations
The Dielectric Breakdown Lightning Model implements a common method for modeling lightning using a grid with regions of varying electric potential to simulate the electrical charge…
Baton Orbit Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
J. Barrick
Post a comment | Relations
Baton Orbit Model shows the trajectory of a baton-like object orbiting under the influence of a 1/r^2 force. This model was motivated by the tumbling motion of one of Saturn’s moons,…

The Diffusion Limited Aggregation in Continuous 2D Space Model simulates the formation of a cluster using a random-walk process called "diffusion limited aggregation" (DLA). The…
Double Slit Wave-Particle Duality Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
W. Christian
Post a comment | Relations
The Double Slit Wave-Particle Duality Model demonstrates how matter and light display both wave- and particle-like properties in single and double slit experiments. The simulation…
Parallel Mandelbrot Set Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
F. Esquembre
Post a comment | Relations
The Parallel Mandelbrot Set Model is a parallelization of the sequential MandelbrotSet model, which does all the computations on a single processor core. This parallelization is able…
Logistic Map Fixed Points Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
W. Christian
Post a comment | Relations
The Logistic Map Fixed Points Model finds periodic trajectories of the logistic map such that n iterations of the map starting with an initial value x return to that value. The key…
Sand Pile Avalanche Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
F. Esquembre
Post a comment | Relations
The Sand Pile Avalanche Model simulates the occurences of avalanches in sand piles and plots the frequencies of the size of these avalanches. The general shape, size, and growth of a…
Driven Pendulum with Phase Space Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
W. Christian
Post a comment | Relations
The Driven Pendulum with Phase Space Model computes and displays the dynamics of a damped and driven pendulum, its phase space, and its Poincare section.  The model displays pendulum…
