Double Pendulum

Simulate a mathematical double pendulum on your Android device. Mathematical and implementation details can be found here.

Brownian motion

Simulate Brownian motion with particles that interact only by elastic collision. Change the simulation parameters in the preference settings. Use the gravity sensor for an additional force. Select between 5 different predefined parameter settings where the yellow particle has X times the mass of the other particles.

Black hole accretion disk

Simulate a thin accretion disk around a black hole on your Android device. The visualizations are based on Einstein's general theory of relativity for a Schwarzschild black hole. The apparent distortion of the disk is due to light rays that follow the curved spacetime. Details and a Qt-based application can also be found here.

Black hole

A black hole is the most weird object in the universe. An object that passes behind it appears strongly distorted because of the black hole's influence on light propagation. Turn your smart phone or tablet into a general relativistic simulator and move the black hole around.

Relativistic motion

Have you ever wondered about how the world around you would look like if you could travel with nearly the speed of light? Turn your smart phone or tablet into a special relativistic simulator and watch buildings around you apparently deform the faster you move.
