Make Waves!

Woo hoo ... here's a gift for you folks. Great for surf-dreaming; hours of fun: http://www.falstad.com/ripple/ "This java applet is a simulation of a ripple tank. It demonstrates waves in two dimensions, including such wave phenomena as interference, diffraction (single slit, double slit, etc.), refraction, resonance, phased arrays, and the Doppler effect."

Definitely gotta go with the 3-d view though; It's way more cool and avoids that hypnotic or "Am I going to go into an epileptic seisure now" type feeling you get with the 2-d view. Later, Steve

When the brightness is adjusted though to max all sorts of interference waves start jumping around. Then checked the four separate sources at once, and it hums ...

It was an experience of catching really mellow 5' waves, gliding along and having a killer time with some aser's, namely Shaft and some guy named Jackson. Who's Jackson? Anyway, that thing isn't good for surf dreaming. It might be good for overdecorating your house at Xmas. Also, I couldn't watch it for 1 minute, let alone hours of fun. You know I still love ya.
