Deepen Your Students' Understanding of Oscillations through
Interactive Experiments Simulations of Oscillatory Systems: with
Award-Winning Software, Physics of Oscillations provides a hands-on
way of visualizing and understanding the fundamental concepts of
the physics of oscillations. Both the textbook and software are
designed as exploration-oriented supplements for courses in general
physics and the theory of oscillations. The book is conveniently
structured according to mathematical complexity. Each chapter in
Part I contains activities, questions, exercises, and problems of
varying levels of difficulty, from straightforward to quite
challenging. Part II presents more sophisticated, highly
mathematical material that delves into the serious theoretical
background for the computer-aided study of oscillations. The
software package allows students to observe the motion of linear
and nonlinear mechanical oscillatory systems and to obtain plots of
the variables that describe the systems along with phase diagrams
and plots of energy transformations. These computer simulations
provide clear, vivid illustrations of oscillations in various
physical systems, bringing to life many abstract concepts,
developing students' physical intuition, and complementing the
analytical study of the subject. Students can investigate phenomena
that would otherwise be difficult to study in a more conventional
manner.
Concise Handbook of Mathematics and Physics presents a unified and
coherent treatment of all the major aspects of modern elementary
physics and mathematics. This complete text/reference includes
definitions of fundamental notations and physical and mathematical
quantities, formulas that express the laws of physics, axioms and
theorems of mathematics, and more. The information is organized
logically (instead of alphabetically) for better comprehension and
quick, convenient access.
The book contains extensive cross-referencing between the
mathematical and physical sections. reflecting the considerable
overlap between these two areas of study and increasing the
usefulness of this handbook. Fundamental concepts, theorems, and
laws are demonstrated through numerous practical examples and tasks
to help build problem-solving skills.
