Hello Fellow Squeakers,
I'm working on some molecular-visualization stuff for Croquet. Does anyone have/know-of classes for representing Atoms/Molecules in Squeak/Smalltalk? I don't so much need something to render them (though that would be nice) as to represent them (so that I can access their coordinates, bonds, elemental properties, etc.) & manipulate them.
I've looked at the 'Atomic' game and the 'Bouncing Atoms' sim, but neither of those provides any real support.
Also, is anyone using Squeak for teaching Chemistry?
thanks for any help! Daniel Faken
Hi Daniel,
We are working in the University of Caen on a framework for self-reconfigurable robots, and particularly on molecular robots. (see the webpage http://www.iutc3.unicaen.fr/serge/MAAM~MAAMProject). Maybe Serge Stinckwich could give you more informations on the developped framework, based on ODE, named sqOde (http://www.iutc3.unicaen.fr/serge/MAAM~Logiciels)... For my part, I'm working on the graph package to model this molecular robots.
Regards, Samir
