Do you think this worked so cleanly because there is a tutorial similar to this and its in the dataset?
https://github.com/liabru/matter-js/wiki/Tutorials
Ok, so this uses https://rapier.rs/ which is very cool
Rapier, alongside https://nalgebra.org/ (which it uses underneath) has seriously good documentation and some advanced features like cross-platform determinism (something made hard by the way floating point differs between platforms)
Project mention: Show HN: Demo of Agent Based Model on GPU with CUDA and OpenGL (Windows/Linux) | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-04
Project mention: Robotics Simulation - Bridging the Gap Between Virtual and Real Worlds | dev.to | 2023-09-28Open Robotics Resources - Provides guides and documentation for robotics simulation.
The best pure-C# physics library (hands-down) is bepuphysics2, which unfortunately is mainly a 3D physics library, but could be used for 2D if you wanted to get your hands dirty.
Hopsan https://liu.se/en/research/hopsan and Project Chrono https://projectchrono.org/ may be good Simulink alternatives.
Project mention: Does anyone know a physics engine where I could simulate a building collapse or such? | /r/PhysicsEngine | 2023-10-03Do you need to include fracturing? Is a simple "disassembly" sufficient? If it's rather a disassembly, then bulletphysics. Or take a look at this https://nphysics.org/
Bevy XPBD will move away from the XPBD solver in coming months, which is worth bearing in mind if you are considering using it for your project.
Project mention: OimoPhysics, A cross-platform 3D physics engine | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-14
Have you looked at https://litiengine.com/ code? Its an interesting little pure java AWT based engine. You could see how they are doing their game loop.
NOTE:
The open source projects on this list are ordered by number of github stars.
The number of mentions indicates repo mentiontions in the last 12 Months or
since we started tracking (Dec 2020).
