This program simulates elastic collisions between particles of the same mass. Can be used for diffusion examinations or just for fun
This program simulates elastic collisions between particles of the same mass.
The ForecedDiffusion.m file is an advanced variant with more safeguards against anomalies. In addition, a piston is simulated in this file which is supposed to simulate a kind of mixing
The simulation is kept very simple. Most of the code is "bugfixes" that can occur under certain circumstances. Particles that stick together or leave the area. The particles only have the parameters position and velocity. there is no gravity or other forces. Feel free to expand/improve this code if you like
PS:If dont use a 2440 x 1440 Monitor u may have ot change the 'defaultFigurePosition'
PS: the normalizeMarker function can also be implemented to the code so u can get rid of that extra file. It was taken from a MathWorks forum, not coded by myself
