Hi all,
The title is pretty much the question. My friend (who wants to go to graduate school in Physics) is between two courses the math department offers: an upper-level linear algebra course, and a second course in ODEs. Here are the course descriptions:
and
The school in question is...
Junior in the Fall
phys323 - Honors EnM
phys333 - Experimental Optics
math420 - Dynamical Systems
engl288 - English Writing
bio135 - Cell/Molecular Biology
Playing some more, I don't think the explicit function for RungeKutta is necessary. ode45 is a fourth-order RungeKutta method, after all.
I wrote some more code, this time including the second equation:
firstode.m
function Eprime = firstode(t,E)...
Thanks! I'll try and work with that.
Le is just the Langevin function, coth(x)-(1/x), with the variable ξe as the parameter: Le = L(ξe) = coth(ξe) - 1/(ξe)
Do you have a suggestion on how to go about doing this...? Sounds...daunting : (
I suppose a first step is reading more about Runge-Kutta, huh (it was never covered in my ODE class)
Thanks for the welcome, chiro.
I thought it would be a system of ODEs, but it seems that would be only in the case that my equations wouldn't contain any terms with t, only the variable sought after
E.g.)
y1' = y1 + y2
y2' = y1*y2
In my case, I do have terms with t (notice the cos(w*t) in the...
Hi all,
I'm trying to use MATLAB to obtain simulations for some equations that describe a model. I'm new to MATLAB (though I've taken a course in C++ and another in Java), so I read a bit on the mathworks website on solving ODEs, and settled on [FONT="Courier New"]ode45
The equations I'm...
Hi all,
Sorry if this topic has been done a lot. I'm not very good at searching.
It seems to me that fluid mechanics is left to engineers and mathematicians (in particular, applied mathematicians? I guess they study the concept of flow?)
What gives? Engineering department here at Cornell has...

I suppose it is because patriotic songs have so much emotion in them you can feel it when they're properly played.
