A first-of-its kind motion simulation and computer aided engineering application for iOS and Android
After many long months of completely overhauling the user interface, MOMDYN v2.0 for iOS is now live and out of beta testing! I generated this little slinky wave animation to celebrate. Download it from this link and if you enjoy, make sure to leave a review.
As I've mentioned in the last two posts, MOMDYN is getting its biggest upgrade yet, with version 2.0 for Android implementing a fully rebuilt, native interface. We will be rolling out to all new and existing users in the next week. In the meantime, check out this tutorial on Youtube to create a mass-spring-damper system, typical of vibration analysis (after the jump).
As I posted a couple months ago, I have been hard at work re-building the Android version of Mobile Multibody Dynamics. Well, I'm happy to say that the update is just about 98% done, and ready to go for beta testers! If you are an Android user, you can opt into the beta test by visiting https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.badeyedea.momdyn. Below image is from the updated tutorial video for a simple pendulum, and you can catch a Youtube video showing how to create this model after the jump.
While I haven't been very active on the MOMDYN blog or social media lately, I'm glad to report I've been *very* active on the development side, and am happy to announce the biggest update yet: Version 2.0 for Android! So what makes this the biggest update yet? How about a completely overhauled and updated user interface. You can see an example in the image below; crisper graphics, brighter colors, more familiar design. On the left, the currently released version 1.7, on the right, the upcoming version 2.0.
As for the technical details, the interface has been re-written to use native Kotlin, heavily leveraging Material Design elements. This change will make everything feel a lot more natural, and performance more responsive and crash-free. Chaquopy is used to load the Python-based modeling engine. Lastly, in my favorite trick, the Google Filament physics-based-rendering engine is used for the 3D graphics. Want to get in on the beta testing (soon), drop me an email. I think you'll like it!
Long time, no post. Been quite active with the MOMDYN updates, in fact, making things more efficient, and as of today, prettier. Check out the animation below with our newest feature: color specifications for bodies.
