Physics animations created using Blender. Combining Rigid with Fluid.
How?
First, the rigid body simulation was created using the Blender Game Engine. Then, the simulation was recorded, so each rigid body object had its own animation. Next, in Blender’s Cycles Engine, all the animated rigid body objects were assigned either Fluid->Obstacle or Collision physics attributes. From there, another simulation was baked on top of the rigid body animation using either particle or fluid sims.
Chicago Knife Fight Maps 2010 – 2019
Mapping a collection of knife crimes in Chicago.
Date range spans from 2010 through 2019. The data comes from data.cityofchicago.org, and is collected by the Chicago Police Department (reported incidents of crime).

Double Pendulum and More Simulations
Unless the initial conditions are identical, they never swing the same.
The video below, displays a variety of chaotic blooms.

Gravity Simulations with Particle Streams
A compilation of gravity force simulations. Animations show what happens to a stream of particles when the force of gravity changes, or the source of gravity moves. These simulations were baked using Blender’s physics system.
Flower like shapes and interesting stream knots can be seen forming in the video below.
Fluid Resolution Differences in Blender 2.79
A video compilation showing how fluid behaves at different resolutions. These clips were rendered using the cycles engine in blender 2.79. Two distinct structures were created for the fluid simulations.
Close Packing Defect Formations of Equilateral Spheres
I made some animations of crystallographic defect formations using equilateral spheres. Point defects, lattice regions, and other interesting patterns can be seen forming in the video below. This was created using Blender’s rigid body physics system.
Visualizing Project Euler Laserbeam Problem 202
Below is an animation of a laser bouncing around a triangle with open vertexes. A link to the Euler problem can be found at projecteuler.net/problem=202. This is just a visualization of the problem. This post does not contain an answer, or any algorithms.
Map of Chicago created by Traffic Crashes 2016 – 2018
Point and heat maps of Chicago created by plotting coordinates of traffic crashes. Time range used, spans from January 2016 through September 2018. The data can be found at data.cityofchicago.org.
Crash data shows information about each traffic crash on city streets within the City of Chicago limits and under the jurisdiction of Chicago Police Department (CPD).
Subreddit Relationships by Mods (The_Donald, AgainstHateSubreddits, and TheBanOut2018)
I thought it would be interesting to see how specific subreddits are related to one another by their mods.
Here is an example of a single mod to many sub relationship.
Three root subreddits where chosen: r/The_Donald, r/AgainstHateSubreddits, and r/TheBanOut2018. Below are wordclouds showing what other subreddits share the same mods as the root subreddit. The font size is the scale for how many mods from the root sub are in another sub. The larger the font, the more mods they share with the root sub. For AHS and TheBanOut2018 clouds a mod relationship less than 4 where filtered out.
