A 20-by-20 grid of nodes forms a force-directed lattice, with links connecting adjacent rows and columns. The simulation uses `d3.forceSimulation` with a `d3.forceManyBody` charge and `d3.forceLink` at high iteration counts to keep the structure rigid. Nodes and edges are drawn to a Canvas 2D context each tick, and users can drag nodes to interactively distort the lattice, with the simulation responding via `d3.drag` and pinned positions.

AI-generated description

This demonstrates forceLink.iterations, which strengthens d3-force’s link constraint by applying the constraint multiple times per simulation step.

Force-Directed Lattice

A force-directed lattice uses a 20x20 grid of nodes connected by links, simulated with `d3.forceSimulation` and a `d3.forceLink` whose link constraint is applied ten times per step (`iterations(10)`), strengthening the lattice’s rigidity. The code renders nodes as small circles and links as lines on a Canvas 2D context, with `d3.drag` enabling interactive node repositioning via fixed positions (`fx`, `fy`). The visible effect shows the lattice folding and warping under the charge force while maintaining its mesh-like structure.

D3 Force Simulation

A force-directed network of 100 nodes and 300 randomly generated links settles into a stable layout under a centering force, many-body repulsion, link distance constraints, and collision avoidance. The visualization uses D3 v4's `d3.forceSimulation` with `d3.forceCenter`, `d3.forceManyBody`, `d3.forceLink`, and `d3.forceCollide` to animate the physics, while nodes are draggable via D3's drag interaction. The simulation updates an SVG canvas on each tick, redrawing lines and circles as positions change. The random data is generated programmatically, creating an abstract, interactive demonstration of force-based layout.

D3 Force Simulation

A force-directed network layout visualizes 100 nodes and 300 random links, rendered as circles and lines in an SVG canvas. The example uses D3 v4’s `d3.forceSimulation` with `forceCenter`, `forceManyBody`, `forceLink`, and `forceCollide` forces to compute positions. Nodes are draggable via `d3.drag`, which updates fixed positions (`fx`, `fy`) during interaction. The animation updates node coordinates and link endpoints on each simulation tick.

D3 Force Simulation

A force-directed network visualization shows 100 nodes and 300 random links in a 400-by-400 SVG canvas. The layout uses D3 v4’s `d3.forceSimulation` with `forceCenter`, `forceManyBody`, `forceLink`, and `forceCollide` to position and repel elements. Nodes render as steelblue circles, links as gray lines, and drag behavior lets users reposition nodes through `d3.drag`. The simulation updates node and link coordinates on every tick via the `ticked` function.

Force-Directed Tree

A force-directed tree renders 1,000 procedurally generated nodes connected in a hierarchical link pattern, with a force simulation continuously repositioning them. The code uses `d3.forceSimulation` with charge, link, x, and y forces to drive the layout, while drawing to a Canvas 2D context. Nodes appear as small filled circles, and links are stroked lines in gray, with the entire scene offset to the canvas center. Interactive dragging is enabled via `d3.drag`, letting users pull any node and observe the layout rebalance in real time.

Force Directed Graph

This example pairs a force-directed graph with an adjacency matrix to explore node-link relationships. The graph uses `d3.forceSimulation` with `forceLink`, `forceManyBody`, and `forceCenter` to position nodes, while drag and zoom interactions are enabled. Clicking a node or matrix cell highlights its row and column in the matrix and emphasizes connected links. Data is loaded from a CSV edges file, and rendering uses SVG circles, lines, and rectangles.

Force Directed Graph

This visualization employs a force-directed graph to display a dataset of 410 linked nodes, loaded from a TSV file. The d3-force simulation, using `forceSimulation`, `forceLink`, and `forceManyBody`, positions the nodes with link thickness proportional to edge weight. Nodes are colored by a group value, and interactive dragging with `d3.drag` and zooming with `d3.zoom` are enabled. A separate, non-interactive adjacency matrix, built with `d3.select` and `reorder`, is shown but not linked to the graph.

Force Directed Graph

A force-directed graph displays a network of 410 nodes and their connections, with node colors assigned by group via `d3.schemeCategory10`. The visualization pairs the graph with an adjacency matrix rendered as SVG rectangles, where users can click either nodes or grid cells to highlight corresponding links and matrix positions. Built with `d3.forceSimulation`, `forceLink`, `forceManyBody`, and `forceCenter`, the graph supports drag-and-drop node repositioning and zoom/pan interactions through `d3.zoom`. The adjacency matrix uses `d3.select` to update stroke and fill opacity based on edge weights.
