SIZE DATE (KBYTES) ARCHIVED COMPRESSION FORMAT(S) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- /mac/misc/physics/cheshire.sit.hqx 17 4/27/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 An anomaly, completely esoteric, uncategorizable, it's there and it's not there, therefore a bit of Schroedinger *must* be involved. *grin* /mac/misc/physics/chill1.0.sit.hqx 50 12/8/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Gives current windchill factor when wind speed and temperature are provided. /mac/misc/physics/diffraction2.02.sit.hqx 81 2/26/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Interact with the phenomenon of diffraction to understand it; allows user to change many different parameters and observe what happens. /mac/misc/physics/drbeam1.1.cpt.hqx 288 9/8/94 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Analyzes and displays how a beam reacts to loads and supports. It's relatively easy to use. /mac/misc/physics/foil1.2.sit.hqx 387 6/5/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Create and display airfoil cross-sections. Can generate NACA 4- and 5- digit airfoils, as well as accept coordinates as input. /mac/misc/physics/fwaveiv1.03.sit.hqx 1027 2/29/96 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Fwave IV is a 2-D electromagnetic wave equation solver, primarily intended for optical waveguides. It is capable of analysing multiple modes in single or coupled, linear or non-linear, guides. Fat Binary. /mac/misc/physics/kinematicland1.1b.sit.hqx 567 9/21/96 BinHex4.0,Stuffit3.50 Kinematic Land is a graphic simulation system of kinematic chains. It resolves the position, the speed and the acceleration of any point and any member. You can edit closed or opened chains, using blocked and movable points. Standard tools are available in a palette window to make easy editing. Every member or point could have independent time evolution. Fat binary. /mac/misc/physics/memsim1.0.cpt.hqx 157 6/1/93 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Emulate the behavior of an elastic membrane subjected to any combination of velocity and force conditions. Requires an FPU, a 68020 or better processor, and at least a portable-sized screen. /mac/misc/physics/stringthingpreview1.0.cpt.hqx 44 10/23/93 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Interactive simulation of a vibrating string. Change position, tension, gravity, flexibility, and friction. /mac/misc/physics/skinheat1.01.sit.hqx 367 5/9/93 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Calculate aerodynamic heating for supersonic targets, then calculate radiometric values for that temperature. Includes Pascal source code. /mac/misc/physics/smsolarsystemlt.sit.hqx 178 3/21/93 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Simulate a system of bodies that move under the influence of each other's mass. Has an interactive three dimensional perspective display to view the bodies. /mac/misc/physics/soaringvon1.1.cpt.hqx 47 9/8/92 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Application to simulate distance, rate, time and gravity-type physics problems. /mac/misc/physics/tinkertoys.sit.hqx 23 2/10/90 BinHex4.0,StuffIt1.51 Allows you to build rubbery tinkertoy-like constructions and move them around dynamically. With docs. /mac/misc/physics/unorthadoxphysics.sit.hqx 446 9/25/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 A set of Hypercard stacks containing one Engineers thought out reasoning on why the Theory of Special Relativity is incorrect. Warning: very thick reading here, will probably incense your Physics-major acquaintances, and might encourage scientific discussions.
