    Graduate Help with System of nonlinear DEs

    Eynstone: Thanks for the pointers! What numerical method would you use? I was going to use just a second order Runge-Kutta, since I need fast results with not too much accuracy. Once again, thanks bud. J

    Yes, i and x are, and so is v. They are all functions of t... I was told to use Runge Kutta by a friend, but am still not sure how to implement it for meshed equations like this. Anyone have any hints?

    Graduate Help with System of nonlinear DEs

    Hello everybody. I have a quick question. I have the following system of nonlinear differential equations: (di/dt)(x)+(x^2 - dx/dt)(i)+ v(t) =0 _ _ _1 dv/dt = i/C _ _ _2 I know my Initial Conditions: i(0) = 0, di(0)/dt = 0, x(0) = L, dx(0)/dt = 0, v(0)=V PS- x is displacement, t is time, i...
