Taking a prototype chemical reaction (molecular hydrogen plus hydrogen atom), constructs an accurate semiempirical, generalized diatomics-in-molecules potential energy surface, calculates motions of these atoms on this surface using REACTS trajectory program, and presents results as moving picture on a microcomputer graphics system. Provides…

Describes a computer program based upon field observations of littoral zonation modified by a small stream. The program employs user-defined color graphic characters to display simulated ecological maps representing the patterning of organisms in response to local values of niche limiting factors. (Author/JN)

Discusses a revision of existing respiratory physiology simulations to promote active learning experiences for individual students. Computer graphics were added to aid student's conceptualization of the physiological system. Specific examples are provided, including those dealing with alveolar gas equations and effects of anatomic shunt flow on…

Describes an interactive computer program designed to provide graphical representations of chemistry and engineering experimental data sets and results of data analyses. Extremely flexible, the program requires no reprograming when new models are used. Models are entered into the program as input lines. (JN)

Describes a presentation of basic quantum mechanics for nonscience majors that relies on a computer-generated graphic display to circumvent the usual mathematical difficulties. It allows a detailed treatment of free-particle motion in a wave picture. (MLH)

This document describes a system that has been developed to use a digital computer graphics terminal for interactive analysis of piecewise continuous systems of nonlinear differential equations. This program allows even a novice user to freely investigate the behavior of control systems and solutions of differential equations by changing initial…

This manual describes the CALM TV graphics interface, a low-cost means of producing quality graphics on an ordinary TV. The system permits the output of data in graphic as well as alphanumeric form and the input of data from the face of the TV using a light pen. The integrated circuits required in the interface can be obtained from standard…

Discusses educational programs carried out by a minimum system which consists of a PDP-8/L computer with 4K memory and an ASR-33 teletype. Indicates that an entire curriculum with 450 students can be handled by simply adding some components. (CC)

Provides short descriptions of computer application in chemistry including displaying organic molecules, solving stoichiometry problems, developing laboratory schedules, programing periodic chart information on pocket calculators, editing chemical manuscripts, instruction in Lewis Structures of simple molecules, a kinetic simulation system, and…

Describes the use of computer-assisted graphical displays in experiments to determine the order and activation energy for a chemical reaction. (MLH)

Discusses the programs and packages of a computer-assisted instruction project called Computational Physics Teaching Laboratory, in which students solve simulated physics at a computer terminal with visual display. (MLH)

This paper describes Macintosh features which can be used in writing interactive programs. A program written in Microsoft BASIC (version 2.0 interpreter) is described which is used to produce plots of electric field produced by two-dimensional arrangements of point charges. It demonstrates the use of pull-down menus, windows on the screen, the…
