Interdisciplinary tasks in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics - STEM.
Physical simulation requires interdisciplinary work: physical modeling, programming, mathematics, programming, geometry, graphic programming. The collection of exercises introduces this world step by step.
Basic school knowledge in mathematics and physics is required, as well as basic programming skills. This knowledge has to be combined when working on these exercises. The existing knowledge is thereby deepened. At the same time, more advanced qualifications are built up step by step when working on the tasks - for example in the area of physical modeling, graphics programming or numerical analysis.
The exercises are aimed at scholars, students and all those interested in the simulation field. A healthy play instinct is assumed. The exercises are flexible in a sense that they were designed for people with different previous knowledge and with kinds of goals. Some exercises focus on physics, while others teach the basics of programming, graphic programming or object-oriented modeling. The exercises build on each other, but do not necessarily have to be processed in the specified order. You can pick out the tasks that fit your own learning goals. If a task sheet is dependent on a previous task sheet, this dependency is explicitely specified in the task sheet.
For these tasks you need the Physolator, a framework for physical simulations. Free download.
