A force-directed simulation arranges 100 circles into two distinct clusters, which switch positions when a button is clicked. The chart also includes a quantitative x-axis, making the clusters' locations measurable. Built with D3 v4, it uses `d3.forceSimulation` with `d3.forceX`, `d3.forceY`, and `d3.forceCollide` forces; clicking toggles the strength of the two horizontal forces, causing the groups to slide and swap sides. The simulation is rendered as SVG and animated on each tick, with the source code compiled from ES6 using the Babel browser library.

AI-generated description

A quick, dirty, and evil template for compiling ES6 in the browser.

The Function constructor is a form of eval, and using it is a bad practice.

Also, using Babel in the browser is slow and deprecated.

So, never do this. 😁

d3-force-cluster and d3-force-attract

Two hundred circles, shaded by cluster with a sequential rainbow scale, are positioned by a force simulation that combines `d3.forceAttract` to pull nodes toward the screen center and `d3.forceCluster` to group them into ten distinct clusters. The layout uses `d3.forceSimulation` with a custom `d3.forceCollide` whose strength ramps up over three seconds for a smooth transition. Each node is an SVG circle, rendered with `d3.drag` for interactive repositioning, while the tick handler updates the `cx`, `cy`, and `r` attributes. The data is generated randomly, with radii varying by cluster, and the example runs in the browser using D3 v4 and the `d3-force-attract` and `d3-force-cluster` plugins.

Clustered Force Layout 4.0

This example shows a force-directed layout with 200 circles organized into 10 distinct clusters, each rendered in a different color from the `d3.schemeCategory20` palette. The circles are separated into their groups by the `clustering` custom force, while the `collide` function, which uses a quadtree, prevents overlap both within and between clusters. The visualization is built with D3 v4, uses the `d3.forceSimulation` API for physics, and renders via SVG. The `ticked` callback updates each circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes as the simulation runs.

Cluster Force Layout IV

This example shows 200 circles grouped into 10 color-coded clusters, with node positions initialized using the d3.layout.pack circle-packing layout and then animated into a clustered force layout via d3.layout.force. The simulation applies a custom cluster function to pull same-color nodes together and a collide function using d3.geom.quadtree to resolve overlaps. Circles enter with a staggered radius transition via attrTween, and the force tick updates SVG circle positions. The data is generated randomly, with radii derived from a log distribution and clusters defined by a categorical color scale.

Clustered Force Layout III

This example shows a clustered force layout where 200 circles are grouped into 10 color-coded clusters, with node sizes varying by cluster. D3’s force layout initializes nodes near their cluster’s center on a circular path, then applies custom cluster and collision forces during each tick to converge on a stable arrangement. An entry transition uses `transition.attrTween` to grow circle radii from zero, delaying collision detection to reduce jitter. The visualization is rendered as animated SVG using D3 v3, with data generated randomly via `Math.random` and `d3.scale.category10` for colors.

d3 | force grouping via events

This example demonstrates how d3-force can be used to group and ungroup data-driven circles through user interaction. Nine circles, colored by group (green for "one", orange for "two") and sized with a square-root scale, are simulated with forces for y-centering, centering, and collision avoidance. Clicking the SPLIT button swaps the x-force to push circles of group "one" toward x=200 and group "two" toward x=700, while JOIN returns all circles to the horizontal center. The simulation’s alphaTarget and restart methods smooth the transitions between the two layouts, and clicking a circle displays its name and value in the footer.

Clustered Force Layout II

A clustered force layout renders 20 circles in four color-coded groups, with each group clustering around its largest member. The simulation uses a custom `cluster` force to pull nodes toward their group's anchor and a `collide` force with a quadtree to prevent overlapping circles. Built with D3 v3's `d3.layout.force`, circles are drawn as SVG elements with positions updated on each tick event. Custom gravity applies only to the largest node of each cluster, while other nodes repel based on inter-cluster padding.

Force

This interactive network visualization shows a force-directed graph of connected nodes, with larger colored circles representing main hubs and smaller ones as children. Using d3.forceSimulation's many-body and link forces, the graph settles into a clustered layout. Users can drag nodes, which restarts the simulation. The SVG renders colored edges and circles, with labels for main nodes, built with d3.v6 in a React framework.

force test I

This animated SVG visualization uses D3’s force layout to cluster 99 circles into four labeled category groups. The circles drift toward category centers based on their assigned category, with charges pulling them apart, while the labels and target centers shift every five seconds between original, four-category, and two-category layouts. The code explicitly defines category centers and calls `d3.layout.force` with a custom `tick` handler and `charge` function. Data is generated randomly, and rendering relies on SVG `circle` and `text` elements manipulated via D3 selections.
