Please help me confirm that I understand this correctly. Imagine a system comprised of two black holes orbiting each other, which will eventually merge. At any point in time we describe the stress-energy tensor of the system. Assume that we could solve the EFE's for every point (t,x,y,z). This...

So I am working on a project where I have a tank, which has a volume of electrolyte liquid inside it. This is coupled to a battery which charges it, and gives it energy. I will have a copperband arround it, so i can measure a potential voltage from the electrical field. So what I need to...

Hey everybody, Background: I'm currently working on a toy model for my master thesis, the massless Klein-Gordon equation in a rotating static Kerr-Schild metric. The partial differential equations are (see http://arxiv.org/abs/1705.01071, equation 27, with V'=0): $$ \partial_t\phi =...

Homework Statement I need calculate the points (##x_i##) and weights (##w_i##) with Gauss Lobatto seven points on the interval [a,b]. With the points and the weights I am going to approximate any integral at this interval.Homework Equations I have found the relevant points and weights at the...

Hi, I've computed 512 terms of a power series numerically. Below are the first 20 terms. $$ \begin{align*} w(z)&=0.182456 -0.00505418 z+0.323581 z^2-0.708205 z^3-0.861668 z^4+0.83326 z^5+0.994182 z^6 \\ &-1.18398 z^7-0.849919 z^8+2.58123 z^9-0.487307 z^{10}-7.57713 z^{11}+3.91376 z^{12}\\...

Hi folks, I've got everything I need to write a paper on the effect of constraints on passwords... except the math. I actually could write it, but the math would make it much meatier. Here is what I know about math. If the answer to a math problem is obvious, it is probably wrong. If the...

Hi PF! I'm solving an PDE where the analytic solution is called ##F(x)## (unknown). To approximate the analytic solution I made a naive expansion in some small parameter ##\epsilon## such that ##F(x) = f_0(x)+\epsilon f_1(x)+O(\epsilon^2)##, where I know ##f_0(x)## and ##f_1(x)##. I then...

Hello, I have been working on a little movement system in a program called Game Maker: studio. The code works fine on the programming perspective, but something I did not expect happened: When I ran the code by adding to the speed while pressing a key, and every step passively subtracting from...

Homework Statement In this exercise, we are given a discrete Lagrangian which looks like this: http://imgur.com/TL0P61r. We have to minimize the discrete S with fixed point r_i and r_f and find the the discrete equations of motions. In the second part we should derive a discrete trajectory for...

Homework Statement I was recently assigned an assignment where my instructor told us to come up with an idea for a numeric classical mechanics problem that is solved by computer methods. Some ideas the instructor gave was to simulate motion of a sun-earth-moon system or simulate the tides of a...

The topic says it all. I am trying to figure out how to delete unwanted equations out of my TI-89 "numeric solver" app. I consulted the manual...nothing. I have googled and youtubed...nothing. Any help here would be great as I love the numeric solver app but it is becoming hard to find the right...

Hello, I've been trying to solve a system of equations but I'm getting a lot of troubles when I tried to insert inside a matrix a numeric variable. This is my code. I've tried both schemes, i.e., (1) introducing all elements of the matrix by hand (real numbers) and (2) introducing numeric...

dear friends when I run my code in MATLAB , some expressions like: "8763559185889905/20769187434139310514121985316880384" appear in my result, so if I want MATLAB to give the numerical value of these sentences, what shouls I type? for example in mathematica I know that I must write ...

A while back, I dug out a topic I worked on many years ago after taking a course in ordinary differential equations and I was left with an unanswered question, which I thought I would post here. While my question arose from studying numeric methods for approximating the solutions to ODEs, I feel...

I'm trying to write a python program that is able to numerically execute functions of the form: y(t) = exp(Integrate[A(x),x]) within the bounds of 0 and t I tried using quad from scipy.integrate but it seems not to be able to evaluate expressions of this form. Any other suggestions on...

Hi, I am searching for a smart way of calculating all numbers in a special matrix kind of game. The game board consist of numbers between 1 and 9 in a 4x4 matrix. Swiping over numbers will either add up (swiping left or right), subtract (swiping up or down) or do nothing (diagonal...

Hey, So I am fairly new to Mathematica (and the physics forums too). I am having a problem with mathematica not calculating the numeric result to an very complex integral. My question is, how do I force it to evaluate the integral as a number? I'm assuming that the integral of a square root...

Hello, I'm trying to (numerically) solve the equation y''*y=-0.5*y'^2 in Mathematica. I know there's an analytic solution (and I know how to calculate it), but I want to modify this equation and thus need to verify that the numerical solution for the original equation is exact. I'm using...

hey, I'm trying to use MATLAB to simulate a simple RC low pass filter. I have an array of data that represents the signal I want to filter, and I have the s-domain representation of the filter circuit. I'm pretty new to this type of analysis, but I'm pretty sure I should be taking the fft...

That is to say, how does one go about it for a non-separable partial differential equation? Let me preface by saying that I am not asking for an answer of perturbation theory, variational theory, mean-field theory, or some sort of self-consistent guess-and-check method (i.e., coupled...

I'm trying to fix a problem with a computer system and I'm not sure where to go next. My office manager said that her numeric keypad wasn't working, though the keyboard was otherwise fine. I replaced her keyboard but to no effect: the new keyboard worked fine except for the numeric keypad...

Full-size keyboards take too much space when you're on a small desk. But a minimal keyboard that I got turned out to be cap, I ended up making more typos and was unable to type fast. So does anyone know of a decent small-size keyboard? With standard-depth, decent keys like those of a normal...

In a playground, two slides have different angles of incline theta1 and theta2 (theta2 > theta1). A child slides down the first at constant speed; on the second, his acceleration down the slide is a. Assume the coefficient of kinetic friction is the same for both slides. (a) Find a in terms of...

the purpose of this thread is to be a placeholder for discussion about the performance of Java in Numerical Computations. Started as a discussion between CRGreathouse and me about weather or not Java can be used effectively in doing computations. The plan we have: Phase 1: Solve a...

Using the suggested algorithm steps of the University Physics extra http://wps.aw.com/wps/media/objects/877/898586/topics/topic01.pdf" I want to make Maple (ver. 10) output values for coordinates, speeds and accelerations (as described in the linked PDF). I've reached the 5th step, which is...

Hi, It has been a long time, and I do not remember how to set up a probability calculation with the following variables - take a lottery that draws 12 numbers, values 0-9 only, from a hopper that replaces the number after it is drawn, i.e. probability of each number appearing remains...
