Java Program for Engine Piston Movement Animation

This program simulates the motion of the components of a two stroke engine. It shows the movement of piston, connecting rod and crank by animating them in java. The program override the paint method of a JFrame to simulate the piston movement in two stroke engine. This can be computer graphics lab (CG lab) problem. The program is as given below. The program uses sin and cos functions to simulate the crank. Also it uses the equation to find the distance between to points.

Java Program to Simulate Motion of Simple Pendulum

This is a java program to simulate motion of simple pendulum using java graphics. This was a problem given in computer graphics lab, which i was supposed to do using graphics.h header file in C. This is the java version of the same. If you are looking for a C Program, here it is: C Program to Simulate Simple Pendulum Motion - Computer Graphics Lab.

Output is as follows:
