The Driven Wave Machine model simulates a wave machine driven by a sinusoidal oscillator. The machine consists of horizontal bars welded to a torsion rod that is perpendicular to the…
Linear Oscillator Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
J. Aguirregabiria
Post a comment | Relations
The Linear Oscillator model solves the harmonic oscillator with or without linear damping and external sinusoidal force. The time evolution and phase space orbit are displayed.…

Byline:
W. Christian
Post a comment | Relations
The ODE Solver Properties Package explores the error when solving the simple harmonic oscillator differential equation using different numerical algorithms. The numerical and…
Swinging Atwood's Machine Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
L. Ruckle
Post a comment | Relations
The Swinging Atwood's Machine Model is an extension of the traditional Atwood's machine where one hanging mass is allowed to swing like a pendulum. One assumes that all motions for…
