Hi guys.
I just want to know how Modeling (Mathematical modeling), simulation and Engineering Design are related. Your views are welcome. Any references and links would be appreciated. I just want to know more about the Design Process and how different processes and techniques are used for...
I've been reading book called 'The Big Questions: Physics' by Michael Brooks during my trip to Warsaw. It's an enjoyable collection of essays despite the fact that they were perhaps slightly too basic at times for a physics student like me. What grabbed my attention though was the simulated...

Hello, I have a question regarding how I'm simulating motion using the common time integrating approach to simulating rigid bodies.
I have net forces and solve for position from those:
acceleration = force / mass
velocity = initial velocity + acceleration * time

Hi everybody. how r u.
i'm using linear technology's LTSpice IV to simulate my dc/dc switching power supplies. for that I'm using the chips from the same company. the problem is that when i simulate the circuit using LTSpice IV the simulation speed that it shows is only 25microsecond/s which...
Hello everyone!
So far I am simulating a Maxwell-Boltzmann distributed gas at 273K in a cube. The walls are thermal but also set to 273K. So the temperature should stay the same throughout the box, which it does.
But now I'm trying to get the gas to flow. I'm trying something, but I'm not...

How effective is simulation in fusion research? Many years ago i designed simulators for fission reactors and they were extremely accurate, sometimes approaching 1% accuracy in terms of core behaviour. It seems to me that it should be possible to determine whether ITER can exceed breakeven, for...

I am required to simulate the propagation of a the wavefront produced by a laser light (about 633 nm) passing through a system of lens and undergoes a few reflection. What I did at the moment is to do ray tracing, record the optical path length of each ray, then connect every point of the same...
I'm trying to write a program that will simulate basic gravity on a set of point particles. The problem I'm having is the program accumulates a lot of error very quickly, the particles start gaining speed and soon they're off to weird places. I can also track how the center of mass of the system...
