force analysis
Sep 25th, 2009, 3:13pm
 
I just started learning using Processing to simulate certain physics phenomenon and I'm stuck at this moment. Say there is a 3D geometry in space and a force applying to it. Those can be simulated using physics formula. But is there a way to actually get the data of force on different part of the object? I want to find a representational means to do the analysis on this 3D geometry, e.g., using color(magnitude), arrows(direction) to demonstrate the force.

If there is some existing library does that, it would be the best.

Thank you

For 3D I would look into JBullet Physics.

I haven't tried it, I'm still in 2D using JBox2D.
