Clickable Engineering Math: Part 2 – Interactive Engineering Problem Solving
Wednesday, April 16, 2008 2:00 – 3:00 PM EDT.
In Part 2 of this two-part Webinar, Dr. Robert Lopez explores exact and approximate solutions of a damped oscillator driven by a saw-tooth input; convolution; the Lagrange multiplier technique; temperatures in the exterior wall of a house; and the root locus. He will show how the discursive treatments of these calculations taken from his Advanced Engineering Mathematics ebook can be adapted to the new interface tools in Maple.
