Force-first textbook physics

dotnetphysicssimulationnovolis

Force-first physics for .NET: compose IForceModel implementations, sum them in SimulationPipeline, and integrate with IIntegrator.

ExampleTopic
[examples/ballistics.md](./examples/ballistics.html)Cannon / drag: facade vs pipeline

Runnable reference

The unit project includes end-to-end scenarios with console tables:

dotnet run --project tests/Novolis.Physics.Unit -c Release -- --show-stdout All

Notable tests:

  • MinimalSimulationExampleTests — FixedStepAccumulator + SimulationPipeline + gravity
  • ProjectileDragPipelineParityTests — facade vs pipeline equivalence
  • CollisionSweepScenarioTests / SweepLimitationScenarioTests — sweep behavior

See tests/Novolis.Physics.TestSupport/README.md for trace helpers.
