One Hundred Physics Visualizations Using Matlab (With Dvd-Rom).

One Hundred Physics Visualizations Using Matlab (With Dvd-Rom).

This book provides visualizations of many topics in general physics. The aim is to have an interactive MATLAB script wherein the user can vary parameters in a specific problem and then immediately see the outcome by way of dynamic "movies" of the response of the system in question. MATLAB...
