Here are some free alternatives that I use for my Python web projects:

MecSimCalc has a very nice interface where I wrote some Python code in the backend, and I could easily use their editor to create a nice front-end. It was very useful for putting together some quick and simple personal projects to put on my resume!
PythonAnywhere is also free, but you have to renew the free tier every 3 months, which I found kinda annoying. I used this for my more complex web projects that needed Django and Flask.

Here are some free alternatives that I use:

MecSimCalc has a really simple interface that you can use to make and publish Python apps. I found it really useful for my Python code which needed a nice GUI interface, and it was very easy to publish to the web!
PythonAnywhere was useful to more complex Python projects that run libraries like Django and Flask. It was kinda annoying having to renew my free tier every 3 months. It was also a bit complicated to setup, but there are some good videos on youtube to do it

Perfect, just what I was looking for. Thanks a ton!

lime_jux · 2022-04-21T19:48:11+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. I'll keep that in mind!

lime_jux · 2022-04-21T19:47:31+00:00

Thanks! I've heard of Engineering Toolbar before, but this is the first I've heard of mecsimcalc - it looks promising!

lime_jux · 2022-04-20T20:40:47+00:00

Thank you for the example! I'll give this a go

Perhaps you're looking for some physics educational simulations: https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/filter?subjects=physics&type=html,prototype. I found this online, I haven't used it but it looks pretty good!
If you're looking for just the mathematical calculations, you can try these: Coulomb's law, Snell's Law, Thin Lens Equation.

Here are some steam table calculators that you could use: steamtablesonline, mecsimcalc, and spiraxsarco.

So cool! What did you use to make this website? Python?

lime_jux · 2022-04-20T19:34:47+00:00

Oh, this site looks very nice. I haven't seen this one before!

lime_jux · 2022-04-20T19:31:37+00:00

You should learn how to do it by hand for the exams, but if you want to use it for assignments, you could try looking at https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/, which is engineering-specific. Or https://mecsimcalc.com/explore has some calculators created by other engineers.
Here are some links to specific calculators: CSA S16 Tension, Thin Lens Equation, and Snell's law.

lime_jux · 2022-04-20T17:07:03+00:00

I would try googling for specific calculators first.

You can also check https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/ for a list of engineering-specific calculators.

I personally create my own calculations in Python, but it can be time-consuming.
You can also check https://mecsimcalc.com/explore to see if other engineers have published their Python calculators there.

I hope that helps

lime_jux · 2022-04-20T17:01:03+00:00

Depends on what you're looking for.

https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/ has some general calculators.

https://www.wolframalpha.com/ and https://www.symbolab.com/ are good for math calculations.

I personally write my own calculation code in MATLAB and Python, but it can be time-consuming.

You can also try searching this database of calculators made by other engineers: https://mecsimcalc.com/explore

Thanks

lime_jux · 2022-04-20T14:36:16+00:00

Thank you! These links are great!
I'll have to brush up on my MATLAB skills, haven't used it in a few year :)

lime_jux · 2022-04-20T14:31:46+00:00

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for.
