Molecular Dynamics
Final project for Phys390: Computer Applications in Physics
Fall 2007
The molecular dynamics application takes PDB (protein databank) files
as input and performs a classical mechanical simulation of how the given
molecule(s) might react under various conditions. The internal forces
that are taken into account are: bond forces, and the Lennard-Jones potential.
Bonds are represented by springs whose equilibrium lengths are consistent with
the covalent radii of the atoms that are bonded together, and bond angles are enforced
by including a restoring force that also acts as a spring. The link at
right leads to a page with more in-depth description of the molecular
dynamics application as well as downloads and source code.

Learn 3D
Software written for Video Game Design course
Summer 2006, 2007
Learn3D is a Java application I wrote in order to teach middle and
high school aged students some of the basic aspects of 3D game design.
With this application students are able to combine objects they have
created (using 3rd party 3D modelers), height maps, and simple game
logic into their own video game. Some examples of simple game logic
are: creating predefined conversations and trades with in-game characters,
linking multiple levels together with doors/gates/transporters, defining
animations, defining boundaries for objects and buildings, etc.
