This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

AUTOMATON* Sound_Waves This uses the HPP_Gas model to perform an experiment. A uniform gas is set up & into this inserted a compressed region (represented by a solid block of particles); this corresponds to the air surrounding the source of a loud burst of noise. As the automaton runs, we observe the compressive longitudinal wave spreading out from the centre; notice how we are temporarily left with a vacuum in the centre as the outward bound gas overshoots. With difficulty you may also be able to see that the incoming ripple which forms, then compresses the central region & bounces back out, to create a secondary outward bound wave front of lower intensity than the first. If you use a relatively small window (say 128x128) you will also observe patterns formed by the original wavefront wrapping around & interfering with the other waves.
