| Objective : | The objectives of GamePhysics are: To give students understanding and experience in building mathematical models as a basis for implementing simulations of physics systems in a graphical computer environment. |
||
| Principal Content : | Geometric objects: point, line, circle, ellipsis etc. Vector and matrix algebra. Coordinate systems and coordinate system transformations. Transformations in 2D and 3D: Translation, rotation, reflection, scaling etc. Animation and modeling time. Modeling physical systems: Newton’s laws, forces, gravity, collision detection, collision handling. All of the above is modeled and implemented in a programming environment. |
||
