Download or read book One Hundred Physics Visualizations Using MATLAB written by Dan Green and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2014 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 tools are used throughout and the software scripts accompany the text in Symbolic Mathematics, Classical Mechanics, Electromagnetism, Waves and Optics, Gases and Fluid Flow, Quantum Mechanics, Special and General Relativity, and Astrophysics and Cosmology. The emphasis is on building up an intuition by running many different parametric choices chosen actively by the user and watching the subsequent behavior of the system. Physics books using MATLAB do not have the range or the intent of this text. They are rather steeped in technical detail. Symbolic math is used extensively and is integral to the aim of using MATLAB tools to accomplish the technical aspects of problem solving.Contents: Symbolic Mathematics and Math ToolsClassical MechanicsElectromagnetismWaves and OpticsGases and Fluid FlowQuantum MechanicsSpecial and General RelativityAstrophysics and Cosmology Readership: Graduate students and researchers in physics.
