Wave Interference Simulator

Visualize wave interference!

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

[See the Properties of Waves for Yourself!] Wave interference can be difficult to understand from physics textbooks and diagrams alone. This app lets you simulate wave interference with real-time animations. ■ Key Features Flexible Wave Source Placement: Easily add spherical or plane wave sources with a single tap. Reflection Wall Simulation: Set up reflection walls with toggleable fixed-end or free-end boundaries to observe interference with reflected waves. Visualization of Interference Lines: Clearly visualize antinodal and nodal lines. Instantly see how changes in phase shift affect the pattern. Intuitive Controls: Precisely adjust position, angle, and phase inversion using sliders or direct numerical input. Rewind and Frame-by-Frame Support: Take full control over the flow of time to observe the exact moment waves overlap. ■ Recommended For: - Anyone who enjoys the beauty of physical phenomena - Those who want to see wave motion in action with full control - High school and college students studying wave physics - Teachers looking for visual aids for their classes
