Four Principles Bioethics Balance Simulator

Clinical ethics is usually taught as four competing duties — autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice — that clinicians must "balance" when they pull in different directions. This simulator turns that balancing act into a real damped spring-mass system in 3D: each principle is a fixed anchor exerting a force on a central decision node proportional to your chosen importance weight times how strongly the principle applies to the selected clinical scenario. Watch the node settle at the weighted centroid of the four anchors, read live influence percentages and residual displacement, and switch between four real dilemmas — treatment refusal, ventilator triage, breaching confidentiality, and borderline decisional capacity — to see how the same physics reshapes the outcome.
