Building an elastic collision simulator with springs in Python to model realistic physics interactions and dynamic object collisions. Learn how to implement spring forces, momentum conservation, and ...

Curious Kids is a series for children of all ages. If you have a question you’d like an expert to answer, send it to CuriousKidsUS@theconversation.com. Is the whole universe just a simulation?

Abstract: The divergent component of motion (DCM) quantifies the unstable component of a robot's motion and is widely used for online motion planning and stabilization in robots. Although the DCM is ...

Researcher Francisco Huera at Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) in Spain has designed a device that harnesses the energy of water currents from the vibrations that occur when water passes around a ...

How to model a pendulum in Python using Jupyter Notebooks. This video walks through the physics of pendulum motion and shows how to simulate it step by step with clean Python code and clear ...

Converting the vibrations generated by water currents in contact with an object into energy. This is the basis of the new system designed by Francisco Huera, a researcher in the Department of ...

The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer—has long captured the public imagination. Yet most arguments about it rest ...

The pendulum at the museum is attached to a 61-foot-long cable. It typically swings as the Earth rotates, knocking down pegs, until it suddenly stopped this month. The Houston Museum of Natural ...

Thomas Anderson – otherwise known as Neo – is walking up a flight of stairs when he sees a black cat shake itself and walk past a doorway. Then the moment seems to replay before his eyes. Just a touch ...
