  2. MacCormack method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacCormack_method

    In computational fluid dynamics, the MacCormack method (/məˈkɔːrmæk ˈmɛθəd/) is a widely used discretization scheme for the numerical solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations. This second-order finite difference method was introduced by Robert W. MacCormack in 1969. [1]

  3. Brent's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brent's_method

    Suppose that we want to solve the equation f(x) = 0. As with the bisection method, we need to initialize Dekker's method with two points, say a 0 and b 0, such that f(a 0) and f(b 0) have opposite signs. If f is continuous on [a 0, b 0], the intermediate value theorem guarantees the existence of a solution between a 0 and b 0.

    Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet editor developed by Microsoft for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS and iPadOS.It features calculation or computation capabilities, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).

  5. Sellmeier equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sellmeier_equation

    A different form of the equation is sometimes used for certain types of materials, e.g. crystals. Each term of the sum representing an absorption resonance of strength B i at a wavelength √ C i. For example, the coefficients for BK7 below correspond to two absorption resonances in the ultraviolet, and one in the mid-infrared region.

  6. Method of characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_characteristics

    In mathematics, the method of characteristics is a technique for solving partial differential equations.Typically, it applies to first-order equations, though in general characteristic curves can also be found for hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equation.

  7. Relaxation (iterative method) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_(iterative_method)

    These equations describe boundary-value problems, in which the solution-function's values are specified on boundary of a domain; the problem is to compute a solution also on its interior. Relaxation methods are used to solve the linear equations resulting from a discretization of the differential equation, for example by finite differences. [2 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_editor

    A formula editor is a computer program that is used to typeset mathematical formulas and mathematical expressions. Formula editors typically serve two purposes: They allow word processing and publication of technical content either for print publication, or to generate raster images for web pages or screen presentations.

  9. Jefimenko's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jefimenko's_equations

    Jefimenko says, "...neither Maxwell's equations nor their solutions indicate an existence of causal links between electric and magnetic fields. Therefore, we must conclude that an electromagnetic field is a dual entity always having an electric and a magnetic component simultaneously created by their common sources: time-variable electric ...
