Java simulations for physics education

Fabrication and Characterization of Bolus Material Using Propylene Glycol for Radiation Therapy

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a synthesized bolus in the reduction of damage to body tissues and the protection of the organ at risk (OAR) in radiotherapy application. Several properties of the synthesized bolus, including density, transmission factor, and effective mass attenuation coefficient, were investigated. Material and ...

Real-time Java simulations of multiple interference dielectric filters

Java Physics Generator and Analysis Modules

A Java software framework allows modules written in different languages to be used in a high level ObjectOriented (OO) environment. Java Native Interfaces (JNI) for Linear Collider (LC) physics event generators are used in defining a common generator interface package. Portable-JNI for TESLA and Asian JLC detector simulation modules have been written for performing comparisons to the American L...

A Universal Physics Modeling Environment in Java

Since the advent of electronic calculation computer simulation has proven a valuable tool for better understanding physics. However, many of its benefits have been disguised by the complicated and counter-intuitive handling of numerical algorithms and the complex behavior of many of the systems under consideration. Although powerful computer graphics and various advanced input devices have put ...

Real-time collaboration of virtual laboratories through the Internet

Web-based learning environments are becoming increasingly popular in higher education. One of the most important web learning resources is the virtual laboratory (VL), which gives students an easy way for training and learning through the Internet. Moreover, on-line collaborative communication represents a practical method to transmit the knowledge and experience from the teacher to students ov...
