The first time I heard about Verlets was about 10 years ago I think, when I was working on a C++ program building a dynamic animated bridge, at that time all documents and resources I found about Verlets were really confusing and at the end I gave up on it (sometimes people explain things in the most complicated way). Last year 2009 in flash on the beach (Brighton, UK) when I was attending the session of Keith Peters, he came with some really good ideas about how to implement the “Verlet Integration” in flash using actionscript 3 in a very, very easy way that makes my imagination flights.

Last weekend I had some spare time for writing an article I got in mind from long time ago, this is about Elastic Collisions, pretty much simple concept but apparently there are some people implementing it in the wrong way (I heard about some crazy exceptions, many bugs and problems people have) and in most of these cases it is because of they are detecting collisions in a wrong workflow. When we speak about elastic collisions we are speaking about the response of it after the collision happens and not when it actually happens (its detection), you must be careful in the way how you detect when the collisions occur, one think is detecting when the collision happens and other completely different is what happen after it.
