SIZE DATE (KBYTES) ARCHIVED COMPRESSION FORMAT(S) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- /mac/util/science/cloudaltitude3.0a.cpt.hqx 17 9/24/93 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Calculate altitude and types of clouds. /mac/util/science/dreamweaver1.01.sit.hqx 103 10/18/95 BinHex4.0, StuffIt3.5 This program demonstrates several simple visual illusions, some of which are caused by 'faults' in the biological structure of the retina or by 'limitations' in the brain's visual center. Each includes a short background. /mac/util/science/engineeringasst1.5.sit.hqx 245 2/3/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 A multi-purpose program that includes an extensive unit conversion utility, a powerful material property and constants database, and a flexible formula database. /mac/util/science/flightdynamics1.0.sit.hqx 272 8/18/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.5 From the README file: Flight Dynamics provides an interactive, real time simulation of aircraft handling qualities. This is an engineering-level simulation of the flight characteristics of the Cessna 172. It is intended as a source of entertainment and education for those who are interested in how an airplane behaves. /mac/util/science/macstim2.19.sit.hqx 474 4/9/96 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.5 This is a program designed to "play" disc-based sound, PICT and movie files in the order, timing and duration specified by a simple script (which the user creates). It was originally written for psychological/functional neuroimaging presentation of stimuli. This archive contains a fully working demonstration version whose only limitation is a time-limit (5-10 minutes or so). Version 2.19 is a substantial re-write with several new features. Fat Binary. /mac/util/science/macgps450.1.sit.hqx 68 3/21/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Saves and restores waypoints and routes, and capture track logs, using my Macintosh computer with a Garmin GPS 45. Note: this program doesn't crash in any way we can see; however, not owning a Garmin 45 myself, I could start pumping input into it. /mac/util/science/macgps0.4b7.sit.hqx 158 2/1/96 Binhex4.0,Stuffit3.5 Will connect to your Global Positioning System, and tell you where you are (hopefully) Requires a cable to go from your Mac to the GPS system Beta version of /mac/util/science/macgps450.1.sit.hqx /mac/util/science/mactide1.33.sit.hqx 263 4/28/96 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Harmonic tide clock and tide predictor; ported from the UNIX application. /mac/util/science/phased1.01.sit.hqx 106 4/3/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Phase D is a program which will make phase diagrams such as those used in neurophysiology papers. It allows limited manipulation of the graphs within the program and will nicely print them, or you can export the graph to a drawing program for further work. /mac/util/science/radfax0.9.sit.hqx 119 2/28/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Connect your Mac to a shortwave radio and tune in to a weather fax station; receives weather faximile messages via the sound input jack; source available which requires ThinkC5.0 and TCL to compile. /mac/util/science/spikestudio3.51.sit.hqx 480 6/4/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Digitize and analyze multiple channels of data using digitizing boards from National Instruments or GW Instruments, or using a sound digitizer such as the microphone input. Allows flexible viewing of the digitized data on the screen, does a variety of analyses on the data, and has nice features for making publication- quality figures from this data.
