App: Collision Lab
Developer: Hassan Mallahzadeh
Genres: Education, Developer Tools

Even though computer simulations don’t fill the place of actual experiments, they are accessible tools to visualize what would happen in actual laboratories. Simulations are not limited by time and space. Everyone, all around the world, can access them and move beyond math equations to see how the nature works. 

The aim of this application is to provide everyone who deals with collisions, specifically physicists, science and engineering students and video game developers, a visually appealing medium to test their knowledge. The application makes it possible to observe elastic and inelastic collisions and study their relation with conservation laws not only in the lab frame but also in the center of mass frame. 

In the current version of the application, the motion of a couple of pucks on a friction-less square floor that is enclosed by fixed walls is simulated. This simple setup is sufficient to perform numerous informative computer experiments. 

I will carefully listen to the feedback that you provide and seriously consider your suggestions. Therefore, please share with me your thoughts and opinions.

Release notes:
1- Text elements are more legible.
2- An online help document is added to the application.
3- Some minor bugs are fixed.
4- Some user interface elements are redesigned.
