Where to start observing
- How does water-surface shape relate to bright patterns inside the tank?
- Which patterns belong to the surface, and which result from concentrated light?
Understanding the model’s limits
This collection includes physics-inspired simulations, mathematical visualizations and artistic effects. They build intuition, but wave speed, particle count, material response and size may be adjusted. Consult the original model notes before making quantitative conclusions.
