Water Waves Model
From GeoMod
This model was created to show the motion of water particles at the surface of a wave. It is based on the approximation of waves as a trocoid, so particles on the surface make elliptical or circular orbits.
You can:
- Change the degree of wave development.
- Change the wavelengths of the waves.
See also the vpython version of this model.
