Re: GSoC: Introducing Optical Physics to sympy

[Jason Moore]

Sudhanshu,

Thanks for your interest. I think it would be best to propose this project on the SymPy mailing list (I've cc'd it), as it doesn't have to do with multibody dynamics (PyDy's purpose). This could be a nice addition to the physics capabilities in SymPy and if you needed to modify or enhance sympy.physics.vector, then we will be involved but this project doesn't fall under PyDy's mission directly.

Hi

I am a second year undergraduate student of Information Systems from BITS Pilani, India.

I like Physics and I've been using Python for an year. This is my Github profile.

I want to propose an idea to introduce a new package for optical physics in sympy. I want to do this as a project under GSoC14.

Optical physics can easily be implemented using scipy.physics.vector. As of now only Guassian optics is available. 

If we add more things like Newtonian optics, Maxwell's equation, Fermat's principle(The principle of least time), Snell's laws and many more concepts, 

It would be very helpful for the users to do scientific computations related to optics using sympy.

Since the vector was developed by you people, It would be great if you help me get started with it.

With Regards

Sudhanshu Mishra
