Start here — representative simulators

Projectile Motion Change launch angle and speed and watch range and trajectory update instantly. Beam Deflection Compute deflection and bending moment diagrams from load, section, and supports. Reynolds Number Enter velocity, diameter, and fluid to judge laminar vs turbulent flow. Heat Diffusion Watch a 2-D temperature field evolve in real time. Double Pendulum (Chaos) Feel chaos: tiny initial differences lead to wildly different orbits. Lorenz Attractor Draw the butterfly-shaped icon of chaos theory in 3D. Mohr's Circle Understand principal and max shear stresses graphically from a stress state. PID Controller Tune gains and watch overshoot and settling time respond.
