a) Make a function osc_energy(u, v, omega) for returning the potential and kinetic energy of an oscillating system described by (8.43)–(8.44). The potential energy is taken as 1 2ω2u2 while the kinetic energy is 1 2 v2. (Note that these expressions are not exactly the physical potential and kinetic energy, since these would be 1 … Read more
1.We consider the ODE problem N (t) = rN(t), N(0) = N0. At some time, tn = nΔt, we can approximate the derivative N (tn) by a backward difference, see Fig. 8.22: N (tn) ≈ N(tn) − N(tn − Δt) Δt = Nn − Nn−1 Δt , which leads to Nn − Nn−1 Δt = … Read more
1.It is recommended to do Exercise 8.12 prior to the present one. Here we look at the same population growth model N (t) = rN(t), N(0) = N0. The time derivative N (t) can be approximated by various types of finite differences. Exercise 8.12 considers a backward difference (Fig. 8.22), while Sect. 8.2.2 explained the … Read more
1.A general ODE problem u (t) = f (u, t), u(0) = U0, may be solved numerically by the third order Runge-Kutta method. The computational scheme reads un+1 = un + Δt 6 (k1 + 4k2 + k3) , n = 0, 1,…,Nt − 1, k1 = f (un, tn), k2 = f (un + … Read more
1.Differing from the single-step methods presented in this chapter, we have the multistep methods, for example the Adams-Bashforth methods. With the single-step methods, un+1 is computed by use of the solution from the previous time step, i.e. un. In multi-step methods, the computed solutions from several previous time steps, e.g., un, un−1 and un−2 are … Read more
1.Consider (8.43)–(8.44) modeling an oscillating engineering system. This 2×2 ODE system can be solved by the Backward Euler scheme, which is based on discretizing derivatives by collecting information backward in time. More specifically, u (t) is approximated as u (t) ≈ u(t) − u(t − Δt) Δt . A general vector ODE u = f … Read more
1.Let y be a scalar function of time t and consider the nonlinear ODE y + y = ty3, t ∈ (0, 4), y(0) = 1 2 . a) Assume you want to solve this ODE numerically by the Backward Euler method. Derive the computational scheme and show that (contrary to the Forward Euler scheme) … Read more
