Simulation Software for Rice University

Students, educators, and researchers at Rice University can run real simulations in the browser — free to start, with no lab install or license to manage.

Whether you are taking a first course in mechanics or running research-grade models, PolySim OS gives Rice University a single browser-based workspace for physics, biology, chemistry, mathematics, and engineering. There is nothing to install on lab machines, and every student can work from their own laptop, free.
