Individual particle based diffusion model

ModelId: 
diffusion
SimileVersion: 
diffusion

 This models molecules in a lattice. They are held in their lattice positions by mutual repulsion. It starts with a low vibrational energy which gradually increases. They are divided into two types for display purposes to illustrate diffusion. To start with they vibrate around their intital positions, then occasionally exchange positions until above a certain energy the fixed positions are lost and they all get mixed.
