In this tutorial, we use GlowScript VPython to build a dipole electric field simulation step by step. Learn how to model charges, compute field vectors, and create an interactive visualization that ...

Model electric flux through a cube using GlowScript. This short visualizes field vectors, surface normals, and how flux adds across each face—making Gauss’s Law feel intuitive with a clean interactive ...

Researchers led by Rice University's Guido Pagano used a specialized quantum device to simulate a vibrating molecule and ...

Foams are everywhere: soap suds, shaving cream, whipped toppings and food emulsions like mayonnaise. For decades, scientists ...

Scientists have long believed that foam behaves like glass, with bubbles locked into place. New simulations reveal that bubbles never truly settle and instead keep moving through many possible ...

Engineers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison uncovered a critical flaw in how lunar and Martian rovers are tested on Earth. Simulations revealed that test results have been misleading for decades ...
