Undergrad How do I numerically find eigenvectors for given eigenvalues?
Your idea was very useful, but I found an alternative solution (page 18). The algorithm: S_0=Q_0 Defactorize: \, A_n=Q_nR_n A_{n+1}=R_nQ_n S_{n+1}=S_nQ_n As the algorithm converges, A_n become a diagonal matrix, whose diagonal elements give the eigenvalues. And the column vectors of S_n gives...- hkBattousai

Undergrad How do I numerically find eigenvectors for given eigenvalues?
My aim was to numerically calculate eigenvalues and eigenvectors for a square A matrix. I managed to find the eigenvalues by using QR algorithm. Now, I can find all of the eigenvalues for any given square matrix. But, for the next step, how do I find the corresponding eigenvectors? Is there...- hkBattousai

If it would work, where does the input energy comes from? We obtain...- hkBattousai

Undergrad Solving Ax=b; when to use LU decomposition?
Hmm. I will substitute columns of the identity matrix for b vector for n times to find n different x vectors. Next, I will merge these x vectors to form the inverse of the A matrix. Did I understand it right?- hkBattousai

Undergrad Solving Ax=b; when to use LU decomposition?
In the Ax=b equation I'm working with, A is a square matrix, x and b are column vectors. Like this: So, how do I make the b vector an n[SIZE="1"]xn identity matrix?- hkBattousai

Undergrad Solving Ax=b; when to use LU decomposition?
Thank you for your guidance. I will stick to LU decomposition. This is an interesting information. I didn't understand what b vector to choose for calculating the inverse of A. Can you please a b vector and explain the method to find the inverse of A matrix?- hkBattousai

Undergrad Solving Ax=b; when to use LU decomposition?
I want to solve the linear equation below: Ax = b For this purpose, I'm writing a C++ code. I have written both routines for decomposing A matrix to L and U matrices, and for calculating inverse of A matrix. I may multiply both sides with A-1: Ax = b A^{-1}Ax = A^{-1}b x =...- hkBattousai

Undergrad Trying to calculate relative speed between two moving points
There are two points on the 2D rectangular coordinate system, namely P and M. Their positions are function of time and are: Position \, of \, P: \, (p_x(t), \, p_y(t)) Position \, of \, M: \, (m_x(t), \, m_y(t)) Distance between them is: R(t) \, = \, \sqrt{(p_x - m_x)^2 \, + \, (p_y -...- hkBattousai

What is the density of the stored energy in adipose tissue (body fat)?
I think the title is self-descriptive. This question stuck in my mind. I want to learn how much energy is stored in human fat. Does this amount of energy density change in every human? If so what is the variance of this distribution?- hkBattousai

How to Produce Glass Tubes for Industrial Use?
Shortly: How is glass tube produced? I'm currently working on a project, in which I am planning to use glass tubes of sizes 1.5m length, 1.8mm thickness, 4cm and 5cm outer diameters. It will be cost effective to produce my own glass tubes when I start the mass production of the overall...- hkBattousai

How much energy is stored in borax element?
One of my friends is insisting that a car can go 19000km with only 1kg of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax" , and only one tea-spoon of borax can extract as much energy 100 tons of coal does. Is that true? Does borax contain this much of chemical energy?- hkBattousai

Graduate How do I numerically compute a state-space equation?
Could it be by solving it with the equation below?: x(t) = e^{At}x(t-T) + \int_{t-T}^{t} e^{A(t - \tau)}Bu(\tau)d\tau "T" is the sampling period of the input signal. To calculate the state vector between any two input samples, I will just solve this equation. Would this method work? Even...- hkBattousai
