PHYSICS SOFTWARE (1)

1. 3D Mechanics
Software for Simulating the Dynamics and Statics of Structures
3D Mechanics allows you to assemble virtually any three-dimensional structure by attaching connecting rods to point masses. You may then apply forces to these masses and simulate the subsequent motion of the entire object. It is not the intention of 3D Mechanics to directly answer any question about the motion of physical objects. Its purpose is instead to supply the position, velocity, and force information you need to figure out for yourself what is going on.
