Governing equation

\frac{\partial u}{\partial t} + (u \cdot \nabla) u = - \frac{\nabla p}{ρ} + 1.0 e - 7 \nabla^{2} u, \nabla \cdot u = 0

Reading this result: Near-zero viscosity: momentum barely dissipates, so vortices persist and the flow tips into turbulent, chaotic mixing.

Shortest Path (Dijkstra)Live

weighted graph search

Controls

Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path from a source (A, blue) to every other node in a weighted graph, always expanding the closest unvisited node next. The number inside each node is its shortest distance from A; the green edges trace the optimal route to your chosen destination. It powers GPS routing, network protocols, and logistics. Click any node to re-target.

Governing equation

d (v) = min (d (v), d (u) + w (u, v)), d (F) = 11

Reading this result: Dijkstra grows a set of finalized nodes, each step expanding the nearest unvisited one and relaxing its outgoing edges. Because all weights are non-negative, the first time a node is finalized its distance is already optimal. This configuration describes 6 nodes and about 9 weighted edges (density 60%).
