    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_simulation

    These engines allow simulation of the way bodies of many types are affected by a variety of physical stimuli. They are also used to create Dynamical simulations without having to know anything about physics. Physics engines are used throughout the video game and movie industry, but not all physics engines are alike.

    Ketron Island crash site in 2024. In the days after the crash, cleanup and recovery crews contracted by Alaska Airlines and its insurers were present on the island to remove debris. As of 2019, this cleanup effort was still ongoing, with pieces of aircraft wreckage still being located on the island after the first anniversary of the incident.

    In aviation, a controlled flight into terrain (CFIT; usually / ˈ s iː f ɪ t / SEE-fit) is an accident in which an airworthy aircraft, fully under pilot control, is unintentionally flown into the ground, a body of water or other obstacle. [1] [2] In a typical CFIT scenario, the crew is unaware of the impending collision until impact, or it is ...

    A crash simulation with a slender (left) and obese (right) female passenger. A crash simulation is a virtual recreation of a destructive crash test of a car or a highway guard rail system using a computer simulation in order to examine the level of safety of the car and its occupants.

  9. Rigs of Rods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigs_of_Rods

    Rigs of Rods (RoR) is a free and open source [1] vehicle-simulation game which uses soft-body physics to simulate the motion destruction and deformation of vehicles. The game uses a soft-body physics engine to simulate a network of interconnected nodes (forming the chassis and the wheels) and gives the ability to simulate deformable objects.
