body physics
Explanation:
there are several kind of body physics:

many body physics

few body physics

rigid body physics
(http://www.gdconf.com/archives/2001/rhodes_paper.pdf);
apparently, at least that last type is closely connected to computer programming.

physics of bodies

Explanation:
"He[Galileo] was a founder of the scientific method, and one of its most painstaking practitioners. In his work on the physics of bodies rolling downhill, when he got to the limits of the measuring techniques of his time (the human pulse was the unit of measure of short intervals) he invented better (weighing the quantity of water that flowed in the time)."
