Hi, I'm Dr. Simulate 🌐
I upload fun videos about the math and physics behind computer simulations, because one animation is worth a thousand pictures.
When I’m not being Dr. Simulate, I go by Moritz Flaschel, a research scientist working in computational mechanics. If you're curious about the more serious side of my work, check out my research on Google Scholar.
Have fun!

Get early access to my new video on tensors for just $1!
If you decide to become a Dr. Simulate channel member, you’ll be supporting the channel and getting little perks like early access and shout-outs. :)
Making these videos takes a ridiculous amount of time, so your support really helps me keep going. But don’t worry, all videos will always stay free. If a membership isn’t possible for you, simply sharing my videos with friends is an amazing way to help out. <3

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 10K SUBSCRIBERS!
I love making these videos, and it’s super motivating to see people finding them useful! I learned a lot while producing the videos, and I love the discussions in the comments!
To celebrate, I made a fun video without many equations. It's about the differences between animating and simulating. Check it out if you haven't already.

Have you checked out my new video on finite strain kinematics? :D In this video, I show how abstract concepts from linear algebra—like the determinant—can have very practical applications. #SoME4

"FOR ALL TEST FUNCTIONS" can also be interpreted as "FOR ALL DIRECTIONS". If you haven't already, check out the video on variational calculus, in which I explain how the weak form derives from a minimization problem.

In my latest video I talk about my PhD thesis research: how we can use computer algorithms to automate the discovery of equations. 🤖 Check it out!
