Computational modeling made simple. Tychos is a web based app that helps teachers bring computational modeling to their science classroom.

Teachers can now add comments to student code to give targeted feedback. Learn more here:

You can now add sound to your simulations. You can play simple tones, sound files, or sound oscillations. Here is a demonstration of add simple tones:

With the new gradient fill, students can easily make some pretty colorful and mesmerizing animations. #edtech #iTeachCS

You can also now apply gradient fills to many of the Tychos objects. Check out the example to see how to do this.

We have added a few new things recently to Tychos. You can add arcs with ease now, either as a "pie", "chord" or "open" - no need to use a poly_line.

Just added an arcade style button to Tychos for fun. Define a function in MathJs or Python and then call it when you press the button.

We added a simple way to remove objects in Tychos so you can create animations like this:

The new Console tab in Tychos behaves very much like a REPL. You can now execute Python code from the prompt, or modify a simulation, or even run the help() command.

Tychos was made to be a simple to use computational modeling tool, but it can be used to teach Python in the browser as well.

You can now upload a csv file into Tychos and then reference that data in your scenario using a simple API. Here is the link to the documentation to learn more:

@pricepd We just added the ability to upload a CSV file into Tychos. It is loaded only into the current session, so if you leave the page, you have to re upload. We are updating our documentation and I will post a link soon.

[Tychos.org @TychosTeam]

@pricepd Here is a simple example of a scenario with goals written in Python. We will put some more examples up soon, but this should get you started.

With our improved collision detection functions, you can easily model some fun physics, like swinging bars hitting rolling balls, and other things! We will be posting many more examples for you to check out.

Here is a fun demo that highlights our new release that now allows you to detect collisions between lines and other shapes. This one uses an elastic force to "bounce" the ball.

We just enhanced and updated our collision detection functions, and we think they are going to really enhance what you can do easily in Tychos. For one, lines have been added, and you can now get the intersection points. Here is a demo:

Tables are back. We redesigned the interface for adding tables to your scenarios for recording data. We created this video that demonstrates how to use them:

Tychos sim of the week...a little bubbly.

@coachingphysics @fnoschese @PhETsims Have you seen this one from @TychosTeam ? https://t.co/1cdXaAPWQK

@TychosTeam Transition between simple harmonic motion and uniform circular motion #ITeachPhysics

[Tychos.org @TychosTeam]

@a_freeparticle Neat sim! Great idea moving the equilibrium point with a mouse click!

[Michael Freeman (@afreeparticle.com on bluesky) @a_freeparticle]

Finally getting around to playing with @TychosTeam, made a simple 2D oscillator with RK4. Fun stuff!

Press play and click around to see how close to uniform circular motion you can get!
