It also includes more advanced topics, such as particle systems, which are essential for creating effects such as sparks or smoke. The book also addresses the key issue of balancing accuracy and simplicity in your games and simulations, and the final chapters provide you with the information and the code to make the right choice for your project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePhysics for JavaScript Games, Animation, and Simulations\u003c\/em\u003e assumes you have a basic knowledge of JavaScript and HTML5. However, no previous knowledge of physics is required--only some very basic math skills. The authors present everything from basic principles to advanced concepts in an approachable way, so you'll be able to follow the logic and easily adapt the principles to your own applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is packed full of practical examples of how you can apply physics to your own games and applications. Spring behaviors can be used for anything from tweaking lowrider suspension to creating cloth simulation; flotation mechanics enable the simulation of submersibles or dirigibles; you can even create your own solar system with accurate orbits and gravity. It doesn't matter if you're modeling the Lorentz force in an electromagnetic field or you're modeling the lift force in a flight simulator, \u003cem\u003ePhysics for JavaScript Games, Animation, and Simulations\u003c\/em\u003e enables you to fill your games and applications with accurate and realistic effects. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdrian Dobre has more than 15 years of experimental and computational modeling experience in fluid dynamics.
