Simulations of Oscillatory Systems: With Award-Winning Software, Physics of Oscillations (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781498707688)

This book 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. Requiring no previous knowledge of algorithmic languages or programming, the interactive software serves as a desktop laboratory for exploring simulated systems and replicating the experiments. Students can investigate phenomena that would otherwise be difficult to study in a more conventional manner.
