Maple projects and class handouts (most recent first):

Ziggy's two-mass spring experiment. There is a correction to the data, obtained in a recount. You are to compare our experiment with the model. The data correction, various doodles, and partial answers are located at 2250Nov27.html


   2250quake.html    Maple Project III, html version, for your browser. This file contains hints for the Earthquake project on pages 437-438 of Edwards-Penney.
   2250quake.mws    maple worksheet, to save and open from Maple.

   2250quaketemplate.html    A template for your solution file to this project, in html.

   For section 3 (Korevaar), this project is due on Monday December 4.
   Grading: 18 points possible, as follows: 1 = 1 point, 2 = 2 points, 3 = 3 points, 4 = 3 points, 5 = 3 points, 6 = 4 points, 7 = 2 points.

   2250Nov13.html    Maple html of November 13 handout about the geometric (velocity field) meaning of first order systems of differential equations, with example 6 page 391.
   2250Nov13.mws    Maple worksheet version.
   2250Nov1.html    Solving DE's in Maple, html version for your browser. This handout should be useful in the Tacoma Narrows project also.

   www.math.utah.edu/~eyre/teach    Maple Project II, in which you model the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, was created by Professor Eyre, and is located at this address. For our section (2250-3), the project is due on Friday November 10.
   Grading: 36 points possible, distributed as follows:
      Part A:   A.1 = 1 point, A.1abc = 2 points each, A.2a = 2 points, A.2b = 1 point.
      Part B:   B.1 = 1 point, B.2a = 2 points, B.2b = 1 point, B.2c = 2 points, B.3abcde = 2 points each.
      Part C:   C.0 = 1 point, C.1,2,3 = 2 points each, C.4 = 3 points.

MAPLE PROJECT I: handed out Friday September 1, due Monday September 11, at 11:59 p.m. Hand it in at the end of class on Monday, or slip it under my office door (JWB 218) before I get to school on Tuesday, at 8:20 a.m.

   2250 Maple Tutorial An introduction to the Math computer lab, and to Maple as a tool for studying differential equations. This file should be downloaded as a ".txt" file, and then opened from Maple in the "Maple Text" format.

   Project 1 Hints The Maple commands which generate the equations and pictures in Edwards-Penney page 43-44. This is a Maple Text file.
   Project 1 answers A template for solutions to the first computer project, formatted in Maple Text. For section 3 of Math 2250 this project is due on Monday September 11.
