Gravitational

Einstein's General Theory of Relativity demonstrates that a large mass can deform spacetime and bend the path of light. So, a very massive object, such as a cluster of galaxies can act as a gravitational lens. With this program, one can draw images to see the effect of gravitational

Gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is an optimization algorithm based on the law of gravity and mass interactions.This algorithm is based on the Newtonian gravity: "Every particle in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their...

KOPS project is a two-dimensional gravitational shootyerfriend game. This is a port from the DOS version. It features parallax scrolling with a full digital soundtrack and sound effects. A Pentium-class processor or better is recommended. You control your ship with five keys; thrust (move...

The Ejs Newtonian Scattering model displays the gravitational scattering of a multiple masses incident on a target mass. The simulation displays the motion of the smaller. The number of particles and their initial spread, the gravitational constant, and the target mass's radius can be changed via...

GravitySaver is a light weight screensaver that expands upon the the iX Planets screensaver by adding a new dimension. What you see is an accurate 3-dimensional simulation of many bodies and their gravitational pull on each other. Collisions result in pulses being emitted from impact points.


Platforms: Mac

Cavendish's screensaver module beautifully visualizes the gravitational forces shaping our universe, accurately predicting and drawing the paths of celestial bodies as their masses attract each other. The screensaver generates a 3D universe with randomly distributed bodies and then uses OpenGL to...
