PRESENTATION APPLETS

Take a look at our Presentation Applets (PAPs) from the Java Object Library Toolbox (JOLT).

• Pie Chart Applet.
  
• Bar Chart Applet.
  
• Line Chart Applet.
  
• Spreadsheet Applet.

GREG WALSH'S ONLINE JAVA TUTORIAL.

Greg's Online Java Tutorial . This tutorial contains a step-by-step guide to building an interactive tank game. It illustrates some of the main features supported in the Java language, including inheritence, polymorphism, multithreading and message passing, as well as some elementary graphics.

BOOKS CONTAINING APPLICATIONS CODE

• Java in a Nutshell .
  
• Java in a Nutshell (2nd Edition) .

ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS

• Engineering Application Applets at Gamelan.
  
• Simulation of Bay Area Train System.
  
• Simulation of Nuclear Reactor.
  
• Bisection Method Tutorial.
  
• Numerical Integration Tutorial.
  
• Cool Beans Genetic Algorithm Demonstration.
  
• The Java Travel Cup . This site contains a directory of transportation links that try to understand the various ways that JavaTM can and should be used to provide transportation services on the World Wide Web.
  
• Java-Based Finite Element Program. This Applet lets you create 1-D Truss Elements, It is for qualitative analysis, but could easily be implemented to find actual displacements with real material properties.
  
• ANL's Interactive WebMap Browser. The page you get lists a number of remediation areas that are active---go to Area 2 Phase I. Under that page choosed the interactive map. Of course your browser needs to be Java enabled for the software to work.
  
• Java Beam : Linear Structural Analysis of Simple Beam Structures.
  
• Java Ultrasound Beam Simulator :
  
• Simulation of Traffic Lights at an Intersection : An applet for simulating traffic lights at a 4-way traffic intersection. This site has Java source code (check it out!).
  
• Retirement Calculator Applet : An applet that helps you figure out if your saving enough for your retirement. This site has Java source code (check it out!).
  
• Global Optimization : An applet package at CMU's Engineering Design Research Center.
  
• Linear Algebra : This site has Java Source code.
  
• NanoCAD : NanoCAD uses mathematical techniques of molecular modeling to simulate the behavior of molecules on your web browser. The "Emin" buttons perform energy minimization, that is, they try to nudge the molecule toward a more natural shape where its potential energy will be lower. Real molecules jiggle around their minimal-energy shapes due to thermal vibrations. This site has Java Source code.
  
• Four Bar Linkage Applet.
  
• Java Virtual Wind Tunnel.
  
• One-Dimensional Transient Conduction Problem.
  
• L-System Applet. L-grammars allow users to create fractal images by specifying parameters. L-system grammars can be used to generate strings, which can be interpreted as drawing commands in order to produce fractal curves (e.g., computer generated images of plants and trees).
  
• Linear Programming Sensitivity Analysis. This software illustrates how simple two variable linear programming problems behave. The constraints, objective function and feasible region are plotted. Users can drag constraints and the objective function and see the effects on the optimal solution and dual variables.
  
• FireMaster Simulator . A fire simulation, using real GIS data and a fire propagation algorithm. This is the current stage of an emergency management system which is under development.
  
• Airport Pattern Simulator . A demonstration program for a simplistic simulation of aircraft arrivals to a single runway.
