Lohmann, Douglas. Development and Evaluation of a Simulator for Electrostatic Teaching.

• (C) Copyright 2016-2017 Douglas Lohmann <[email protected]>.

Schanpsidee is a simulator applied to electrostatic content, which permits to obtain the electric field of the ring geometry, disk and line, at any point in three-dimensional space. Other physics quantities such as Electrical Force, Work and the Electrical Potential can also be obtained through this simulator.

Instructions to use the simulator.

• In development.

We believe that the development of a free and open-source simulator can contribute to the teaching-learning process of physics, in this way we are grateful for any contribution.

This section describe the project organization in git and the internal directories.

This project has a git branching model using a master (stable version), and a develop (the current developing version) with main branches. When a bug is detected in a master version a new branch called hotfixes is open to fix the bug and then merge to master.

New features are implemented with new branches from develop version. When we have a stable version of develop branch we create a test branch to make tests until merge to master.

In sumary we have the following branches:

• master (stable version).
  • develop (developing).
    • new features branches (add new features).
    • test (test version until merge to master).
  • hotfixes (Urgent bug fix in stable version).

It is recommended that new developers read the following websites before beginning the contribution:

• Understanding the GitHub Flow;
• A successful Git branching model.

This repository is organized according to the following structure:

• Schanpsidee

  • Source files -code.
  • README.md - This tutorial.
  • LICENSE - Project License.

• This three is not automatic generated, so the three is not complete and you should check on project diretory for more details.

Licenses:

• Schanpsidee is a free software that is under the GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 3 license.

Maintainers:

• This implementation is maintained by Douglas Lohmann. Any questions or suggestions send him an email: [email protected].

• This simulator was built with the help of Professor Dr. Cesar Vanderlei Deimling, all necessary support for understanding the physics principles were offered by him.
