Buoyancy Simulation

By: Gijs Bellaard

This app simulates buoyancy, and nothing but buoyancy, in real time (for me at least). You can upload your own .obj file to change the mesh to anything you want. You should however make sure the mesh is "nice". With "nice" I mean the mesh is closed and has no intersecting triangles, otherwise the simulation will be totally wrong. The red/green/blue cross is the position/orientation of the mesh, centered at the center of mass. The black cross is the center of buoyancy. The black square is the water level, and is 2 by 2 meters wide.
