Circles bouncing inside a rectangle
This example shows twenty colored circles bouncing and colliding within a rectangular boundary, with each circle moving at a constant speed and bouncing off the walls. The visualization adapts D3.js’s force layout to animate the circles, using custom gravity and collision functions to handle wall reflections and circle-to-circle collisions. The code relies on `d3.layout.force` for the simulation loop, `d3.geom.quadtree` for efficient collision detection, and SVG elements for rendering. Circle positions and velocities are manually updated in the tick function, while a static rectangle outlines the containment area, and the data consists of randomly generated circles with varied radii and colors.

The balls use a modified version of the D3.js Force Layout. Parts of the code, such as the collision function are taken from Mike Bostock's example Multi-Foci Force Layout.
