Awesome Simulation

Extreme Suspension Simulation

Extreme Suspension Simulation

We’ve witnessed first-hand how car companies test the suspension setups on new vehicles. They also use computer simulations with realistic physics models. This video from ExtenPro shows how various vehicle suspensions might handle on a punishing course they set up in the vehicle simulation game BeamNG drive.

Sloshing Simulation

Sloshing Simulation

Tanker trucks are a common sight on highways. This fascinating physics simulation created in SIMULIA XFlow gives us a look into what happens when a partially-filled truck hits its brakes and the fluid inside starts sloshing around. It also shows the impact that adding baffles can have on reducing the “slosh force.”

Factorio 1.0

Factorio 1.0

Factorio is an incredible game about building and maintaining huge factories. After years of development and early access testing, v1.0 is here. You’ll mine for resources, figure out how to make your factories more efficient, and fight off enemies hellbent on their destruction. Grab the trial, or buy the full game here.

Noodle Physics Simulation

Noodle Physics Simulation

We’re not quite sure why we find this CGI simulation of noodles being tossed about so satisfying, but we do. Somebody needs to turn this into a video game where the objective is to transfer all the noodles from the bowl to the glass using only that fork. We’d pay at least $1.99 for that game.

Westworld Mobile Game

Westworld Mobile Game

Fans of HBO’s hit series will have something to keep them occupied between seasons. This sim game puts you in charge of a Delos simulation as you release and maintain hosts, attempt to keep the whole place from descending into madness. On Android and iOS devices.

100 Speed Bump Simulation

100 Speed Bump Simulation

BeamNG.drive is an automotive physics simulator that behaves quite realistically. In this satisfying clip from DestructionNation, watch what happens when cars, trucks, and SUVs are subjected to 100 speed bumps in a row without any effort made to slow down.

55,000 Plank Physics Simulation

55,000 Plank Physics Simulation

Digital physics engines are fun. You can make all kinds of things happen in the virtual world that would be difficult to achieve in the real world. Take, for example, this stack of 55,000 Jenga-like planks which Xepher let his system render over the course of 12 days.

RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic

RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic

Developer Chris Sawyer takes his classic theme park simulators to mobile devices. RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic combines the best of the original RollerCoaster Tycoon and RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 in one game. Available for iOS and Android.

The Universim (Trailer)

The Universim (Trailer)

This ambitious simulator encourages players to shape and cultivate entire planets, and the simulation keeps going whether you interact with it or not, so you can play, or merely observe. The best part: NO microtransactions or paid DLC.
