Today I had the very last Progress Meeting with Dr Ozveren (shown below):
-
Progress
-
Particle is falling perfectly and the calculations seem to be working correctly.
-
Next Step
-
To make the particle slide properly and fall after it leaves the plane. I may need to change the plane equation as it is for an infinite plane and with my current collision detection this means that the particle will never leave the plane. There the equation needs to be of a plane segment. Another possible step is to add more particles bouncing together and perhaps adding friction.
-
Problems
-
Was only bouncing correctly every now and again and this was due to a mix up with a letter! Absolute value does not work either but I do not think I will need it.
-
Dissertation
-
Underway - progress is slow but it will pick up once the programming is done which should be soon hopefully.
-
Changes
-
I have to just focus on this stage done - nearly is. Add more particles to the system although I need to run this past Dr Lucas to see if it is a possible option.
