Projects

Bullet Physics Engine

Bullet is a 3D Collision Detection and Rigid Body Dynamics Library for games and special effects for film and animations. Bullet is integrated into many 3d modelers including Maya, Houdini, Cinema 4D, LightWave and Blender. It is free for commercial use and open source under the permissive ZLib ... [More] License. Bullet is cross-platform for Windows, Linux, Mac OSX, Playstation 3, XBox 360, Wii, iOS, Android with special optimizations for x86 SIMD SSE, Cell SPE and OpenCL. [Less]

Open Dynamics Engine

ODE is an open source, high performance library for simulating rigid body dynamics. It is fully featured, stable, mature and platform independent with an easy to use C/C++ API. It has advanced joint types and integrated collision detection with friction. ODE is useful for simulating vehicles ... [More] , objects in virtual reality environments and virtual creatures. It is currently used in many computer games, 3D authoring tools and simulation tools. [Less]

oofem

OOFEM is an open source multi-physics parallel finite element code with object oriented architecture. The aim of this project is to provide efficient and robust tool for FEM computations as well as to offer highly modular and extensible environment for development.

Gravit

Gravit is a gravity simulator which runs under Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. It's released under the GNU General Public License which makes it free. It uses Newtonian physics using the Barnes-Hut N-body algorithm. Although the main goal of Gravit is to be as accurate as possible, it also creates ... [More] beautiful looking gravity patterns. It records the history of each particle so it can animate and display a path of its travels. At any stage you can rotate your view in 3D and zoom in and out. Gravit uses OpenGL with Lua, SDL, SDL_ttf and SDL_image. [Less]

xmds

XMDS is a code generator that integrates equations. You write them down in human readable form in a XML file, and it goes away and writes and compiles a C++ program that integrates those equations as fast as it can possibly be done in your architecture.

SOFA - Simulation Framework

SOFA is an Open Source framework primarily targeted at real-time simulation, with an emphasis on medical simulation. It is mostly intended for the research community to help develop newer algorithms, but can also be used as an efficient prototyping tool. Based on an advanced software architecture ... [More] , it allows to: Create complex and evolving simulations by combining new algorithms with algorithms already included in SOFA Modify most parameters of the simulation – deformable behavior, surface representation, solver, constraints, collision algorithm, etc. – by simply editing an XML file Build complex models from simpler ones using a scene-graph description Efficiently simulate the dynamics of interacting objects using abstract equation solvers Reuse and compare a variety available methods [Less]

Debian Science

The main goal of the Debian Science project is to provide a system with all the most important free scientific software in each scientific field.

General Intensional Programming System

General Intensional Programming System (GIPSY) is a research platform for composition, compilation, and distributed demand-driven evaluation of intensional programs written e.g. in various pure and hybrid Lucid programming language dialects.

Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS)

FDS is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of fire-driven fluid flow. The software solves numerically a form of the Navier-Stokes equations appropriate for low-speed, thermally-driven flow with an emphasis on smoke and heat transport from fires. Smokeview is a visualization program that is ... [More] used to display the results of an FDS simulation. This application is developed and maintained by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). [Less]
