Summary

This chapter introduced a number of forces that act on solid objects in contact with other solid objects or with fluids. If you are simulating nearly anything on Earth, chances are you'll need to model these forces. What you learned in this chapter has given you a solid foundation upon which you can build to create more complex effects and simulations. In the final chapter, you will have the opportunity to develop more complete simulations using the physics explained here.
