About Sand Blast Puzzle

An innovative physics-based puzzle game that combines strategic thinking with satisfying sand simulation mechanics.

Research Background

This project originated from computational physics research into granular materials behavior. Our team combined expertise in discrete element modeling (DEM), WebGL optimization, and educational game design to create an accessible platform for exploring particle physics principles.

The simulation engine implements state-of-the-art algorithms from materials science literature, including Hertz-Mindlin contact models and spatial hashing techniques typically found in high-performance computing environments, adapted for real-time web applications.

Development Philosophy

Our approach combines rigorous scientific principles with accessible game design. The project draws inspiration from academic research in computational physics, materials science, and educational technology to create an engaging learning platform.

By implementing established algorithms from peer-reviewed literature and adapting them for web-based applications, we aim to bridge the gap between advanced scientific computing and public education in physics concepts.
