Operating the simulation

For instruction read the text file and study the main window of the simulation,

where all elements for the definition of operating parameters and for the calculation are situated.

At start of the file, the time step of integration is set at 0,01 seconds. Try with smaller values if this is low enough; at proper values different steps should give similar results.

The differential equation and the integration of the friction function are both solved via Runge-Kutta-4.

If your computer is slow, close windows and deselect the points and lines options to speed up the calculation.

Blow the windows up to study them at full screen size.
