BallsSimulation

A simple simulation of balls insteraction. Can be used for an ideal gas, or billard balls simulations.

Installation instructions:

cd BallsSimulation
mkdir build; cd build
cmake ../
make install -j 4

Alternative version with command line compilation:

cd BallsSimulation
mkdir build; cd build
g++ -Wall -O3 -std=c++14 -DWITHOUT_NUMPY -I/usr/include/python2.7/ -lpython2.7 -I../include/ ../src/*.cpp ../bin/main.cpp -o mySimulation

Running intructions:

Application recognises a number of command line options:

• -nStep - integer number of time steps to simulate
• -nBalls - integer number of balls to simulate
• -input - source of balls. "random" - means random initial position and speed.
• -dt - time step, in range ]0,1[

Run command:

./mySimulation -nSteps 250 -nBalls 2 -input random -dt -0.01

Program creates a set of frames merged at the end into a gif animation "animation.gif". The animation can be displayed in browser, just type URL (replace "directory" with correct path) to the file.
